摘要
A cure model has been developed for the viscosity of two-part epoxy/amine resins, focussing on low extents of cure-the most important region for the mould-filling stage in resin transfer moulding. A key advantage of the model is that it is not explicitly dependent on the extent of cure; therefore, the model can be used to predict the viscosity during cure without the need for determining the resin cure kinetics. The model parameters ate obtained from isothermal viscosity-time measurements at constant shear rate. Examples are shown and data are given for five different resins in the temperature range 20-70 degreesC. The model is applied to simulate non-isothermal cure and compared against experimental data.
