Investigation on the Effect of Butyl Acrylate (nBA) to Improve the Toughness Properties of Methacrylate-Based Waterproofing Adhesive Material (MMA) for the Steel Bridge Deck

Figure 6

Thermal property of polymers and their mechanical analysis. (a) TG stage curves of the MMA and poly(MMA-r-nBA) polymers. (b) DTG curves of the MMA and poly(MMA-r-nBA) polymers; The two grey boxes represent peaks at approximately 350°C and 370°C, respectively. (c-e) DMA curves of the MMA and 50/50 poly(MMA-r-nBA) samples. The test data includes storage modulus, loss factor (Tg), and loss modulus.
