Single glass transition temperatures intermediate between the two pure components were observed for all blend levels. The secondary relaxation mechanism should relate to not only diester linkage, but also hydroxyether structural unit in the system. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) is applied to study the curing reaction and intermolecular specific interaction of the system. The results indicate the PEO participates the crosslinking reaction, accelerates the curing reaction and make the reaction more perfect. The shifts of the hydroxyl band and carbonyl band demonstrate the presence of the intermolecular interaction in the cured blend. Moreover, the molecular interaction between the side hydroxyl in the hydroxyether units and the ether bond in PEO macromolecules is stronger.展开更多

It was found that the sonic velocity of the blends decreased as thetemperature increased, but attenuation coefficient increased and possessed a peak value. Largervelocity and smaller attenuation coefficient(α)can be obtained from perfect crosslinking networkstructures of pure DGEBA cured with phthalic anhydride(PA). As for cured DGEBA/PEO blendsystems,sonic velocity decreased as a function of PEO concentration,but attenuation coefficient(α) increased.展开更多

However, the added epoxy resin restricted the mobility of PBT macromolecular chains during the growth process of the crystal, which reduced the final crystallinity of PBT. The PBT/MB-g-GMA blend containing 1%（mass fraction） epoxy resin exhibited good mechanical properties. For example, the notched impact strength of the PBT/MB-g-GMA blend with 1%（mass fraction） epoxy resin was about 2 times that of PBT/MB-g-GMA blend. Sanning electron microscope（SEM） results show that the shear yielding of the PBT matrix and the cavitations of rubber particles were the major toughening mechanisms. The chemical reaction between PBT and epoxy resin induced the high complex viscosity and storage modulus of PBT/MB-g-GMA blend.展开更多
