A study on the effects of environment on curing characteristics of thixotropic and room temperature cured epoxy-based adhesives using DMTA

This study investigated the thermal properties of three room temperature curing adhesives containing nano-particles which were thixotropic and shear thinning which allowed injection into overhead holes when exposed to different environmental conditions. Viscosity and shear stress of the adhesives we...

description This study investigated the thermal properties of three room temperature curing adhesives containing nano-particles which were thixotropic and shear thinning which allowed injection into overhead holes when exposed to different environmental conditions. Viscosity and shear stress of the adhesives were measured as a function of shear rate. The thermal behaviour of the adhesives were measured using dynamic mechanical thermal analysis following exposure to different temperatures and humidities which included temperatures of 20°C. 30°C and 50°C, relative humidities of 65% RH, 75% RH and 95% RH, soaked in water at 20°C and placed in the oven at 50°C. The dynamic thermal properties reported include storage and loss modulus, the loss tangent and the glass transition temperature (Tg). For nano- and micro-particles filled adhesives, the Tg increased with the temperature increase, even though the adhesives were subjected to high humidity and this was due to further cross-linking. The results showed that room temperature cured epoxies were only partially cured at room temperature.
