Abstract :
Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) was used at different heating rates to study the cure kinetics of the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) with a polyaminophenolic product (PAP) derived from the modification of tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA). The activation energy (Ea) based on a single heating rate was compared with Ea based on multiple heating rates (Kissinger, isoconversional method).
