Curing and thermal degradation of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A epoxy resin crosslinked with natural hydroxy acids as environmentally friendly hardeners

The paper presents the curing of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) with two natural hydroxy acids and the thermal behavior of the cured products. The kinetics of the curing reactions were evaluated from the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curves using Ozawa, Kissinger methods and “Ther...
