Thermomechanical Properties and Fracture Toughness Improvement of Thermosetting Vinyl Ester Using Liquid Metal and Graphene Nanoplatelets
In this study, a eutectic gallium–indium (EGaIn) alloy and graphene nanoplatelets (GnPs) were employed as reinforcements for a comonomer vinyl ester (cVE) resin at different weight fractions up to 2% via a direct polymerization process. First, the effect of EGaIn on the curing kinetics of cVE was ev...
