The objective of this study was to determine the effect of selected curing conditions on the
mechanical properties of the cured adhesive compounds and adhesive joints made with …

The use of adhesives offers a number of advantages, including the possibility of bonding
different materials, eg polymers with metals or elements of varying thicknesses [[1],[2],[3],[4]] …

The accelerated degradation of alkyd resins via γ-irradiation is investigated using non-
isothermal chemiluminescence. The stability qualification is possible through the …

The hydrothermal ageing of epoxy–thermoplastic blends, used as matrices for carbon fibre
composites, cured by electron beam, has been studied. Two different thermoplastic …

The paper focuses on selected parameters of curing process–temperature and time. The
tests aimed at evaluating the impact of short-term thermal recuring on 1050A and 2017A …

This chapter presents general information regarding epoxy resins and epoxy adhesives.
Their advantageous properties and relatively uncomplicated processing methods contribute …

A review of studies of radiation aging of polymer composite materials (PCMs) based on
epoxy binders is presented. Physicochemical and structural transformations in polymer …

The use of ionizing radiation in order to initiate polymerization of suitable monomers has
found increased interest in the last two decades due to its several advantages. In this work …

BACKGROUND: Processing parameters and material properties of epoxy resins can be
vastly influenced by choice of curing agent. In this work, metal complexes were investigated …

Large-scale shrinkages and holes are the two critical disadvantages of the silicone resin
prepared by the sol–gel technology and cured via traditional processes. To simultaneously …
