TLDR
The morphology of a system consisting of a bisphenol A digrycidylether (DGEBA) based epoxy, cured with a cycloaliphatic diamine (4,4'-diamino-3,3'-dimethyldicyclohexylmethane, 3DCM), in the presence of an epoxy-terminated butadiene-acrylonitrile random copolymer (ETBN), was studied as a function of the cure schedule and the initial rubber concentration.Abstract:

Reaction-induced phase separation in modified thermosetting polymers
TL;DR: In this paper, a thermodynamic description of reaction-induced phase separation is made, using the Flory-Huggins equation at two approximation levels, i.e. a quasi-binary approach and a multicomponent treatment taking polydispersity of constituents into account.
