Temperature-dependent fracture behavior of towpreg epoxy resins for cryogenic liquid hydrogen composite vessels: The influence of polysiloxane tougheners on the resin yield behavior

In this study, a latent and tacky epoxy resin (EP) modified with siloxane core-shell-particles was developed and investigated. The use of EP as a towpreg matrix for winding of cryogenic composite vessels requires a certain toughness to resist microcracking. First, the mechanical properties at +90 °C...
