Investigation of Cure Reaction, Rheology, Volume Shrinkage and Thermomechanical Properties of Nano-TiO2 Filled Epoxy/DDS Composites
Figure 7
(a) Specific volume versus curing time from PVT test (epoxy/TiO2 composites) at 180°C, 10 MPa. (b) A schematic representation of constrained layer of polymer chains around the TiO2 nanoparticles dispersed in the epoxy matrix (white-epoxy matrix, black-TiO2. particles, red-constrained polymer chains).
