Molecular parameters governing the yield response of epoxy‐based glassy networks
Alan J. Lesser,Kevin J. Calzia +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the glass transition temperature and the cohesive energy density of epoxy-based glassy thermosets were investigated to predict the yield response as a function of strain rate, temperature, and stress state.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparing reinforcement strategies for epoxy networks using reactive and non-reactive fortifiers
TL;DR: In this paper, two types of antiplasticizers, dimethyl methylphosphonate and diethyl phosphoramidate, are incorporated into the model epoxy network.
Journal ArticleDOI
Correlating yield response with molecular architecture in polymer glasses
Kevin J. Calzia,Alan J. Lesser +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the yield response of nine architecturally different glassy networks is investigated under several stress states, strain rates, and temperatures, and correlations are made among them, and the limits of the correlations made between molecular architecture and yield behavior are further studied with attempts to relate yielding in thermoplastic glasses and heterogeneous networks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reinforcement of epoxy networks with sulfur‐ and carbon‐based molecular fortifiers
TL;DR: In this article, sulfur and carbon-based molecular fortifiers were compared with phosphorus-based and carbon dioxide-based fortifiers. But, the performance of the carbon-and phosphorus-derived fortifiers was not improved.
