Abstract
AbstractThe paper describes the effect of styrene on the properties of bis(methacryloxy) derivatives of epoxy resins (vinyl ester resins). The styrene concentration in the resin was systematically varied between 20–60 wt.‐%. The curing characteristics of vinyl ester resins changed only marginally on dilution with styrene. Dilution with styrene resulted in a decrease in tensile modulus and increase in elongation of neat resin castings and glass fibre reinforced laminates. The glass transition temperature of laminates was determined by dynamic mechanical analysis and was found to decrease with increasing styrene content.
