...Zhou Yang; Minghe Chi; Xiaorui Zhang; Jiahao Shi; Xue Sun; Xiaoman Zhang; Qingguo Chen Purpose Epoxy resin (EP) is a thermosetting resin commonly characterized by its inherent brittleness, which limits its widespread application. To overcome this limitation, a novel flexible chain-blocking...

.... The chip dispersion and homogeneity are assessed using a field emission scanning electron microscope. Findings Waste copper alloys can be used to enhance the vibration-dampening properties of epoxy resin. The interface and bonding between the resin and the chip are crucial for enhancing the damping...

... materials were shown in Table 1 . As one of the most famous thermosetting polymer, epoxy resin (EP) has been widely used in adhesives, composite materials, molding compounds, surface coating and microelectronic material due to its high tensile strength, good chemical resistance, excellent adhesion, low...

... epoxy (SEP) resin was synthesized via a reaction between diisopropoxy-bis ethylacetoacetato titanate and the epoxy resin. Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) was surface modified by grafting (3-glycidoxypropyl) trimethoxysilane to obtain modified HNTs (mHNTs). The HNTs and mHNTs are used as nano tube fillers...

...Guangkai Hu; Xiaorui Zhang; Lizhu Liu; Weng Ling; Weiwei Cui Purpose The dispersity of graphene oxide (GO) has an important effect on the properties of epoxy resin (EP) composites. Many modification and dispersion methods require the use of inert solvents which do not participate...

...Chuanxin Feng; Zewen Li; Haosheng Wang Purpose This paper aims to investigate the effects of epoxy resin on the rheological and mechanical properties and water absorption rate of wood flour/high-density polyethylene (HDPE) composites (wood-plastic composite [WPC]). Design/methodology/approach...
