Cold curing was used to evaluate the rheological properties of epoxy resin which was reinforced with fullerene (C 60 ) at different concentrations (0, 0.07, 0.11, 0.16, 0.25, 0.33, and 0.66 wt%).The kinetics of changes at complex viscosities was studied, by investigating the relationship between resin viscosity and resin with nanoparticles temperature dependency, the effect of fullerene reinforcements on the viscosity of the constituent epoxy-polymer compositions was evaluated. We steadied how the complex viscosity changed with time when adhesive compositions doped with C 60 at various concentrations polymerized. By changing the concentrations of fullerenes, the time to reach the gel-point was determined for the mixtures and materials used. It was observed that the reinforcement at the beginning of the mixture with reinforcement changes with the time curing of the composition at a concentration of 0.16 wt.%, the maximum effect (30%) is achieved. The Young's modulus is shown to increase when the polymer is doped with fullerenes at 0.15 wt.% and decrease when the polymer is without filler.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
