This paper presents a literature survey on the theoretical backgrounds and the past research
efforts in relation to the interactions between certain thermoplastics and epoxies, and their …

Epoxy resins are a family of thermosetting materials widely used as adhesives, coatings and
matrices in polymer composites because of the low viscosity of the formulations, good …

The synthesis, processing, thermal and mechanical properties and fracture toughness of
epoxy resin formulated with hydroxyl terminated poly (ether ether ketone) with pendent …

The chemical irreversible hardening of epoxy modified bitumen is affected by various
physical factors and the successful application of this technology is directly linked with full …

In this paper, the synergistic use of polyetherimide (PEI) and a phosphonium-based ionic
liquid (IL) as multifunctional agents in epoxy networks is evidenced. Indeed, such a …

Thermosets are frequently toughened by a high-T g thermoplastic (TP). Blend morphologies
obtained by curing induced phase separation with scales of a few hundreds of nanometers …

The viscoelastic effects during reaction induced phase separation play an important role in
toughening epoxy-based blends. The large difference in molecular weight/glass transition …

Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) were heat-treated at 1100° C (CNF1100) and 2500° C
(CNF2500), respectively, and embedded as fillers at different mass percentages into an …

Thermosets, which have a highly crosslinked structure, play a pivotal role in high‐
