Influence of aromatic amine hardeners in the cure kinetics of an epoxy resin used in advanced composites

Composite structures for aerospace applications are mainly made by the well-known prepreg technology. In order to achieve adequate prepreg processing schedules, and consequently maximum fiber strength utilization, one has to know in deep the cure kinetics of matrix, which held the fibers together. T...
