Abstract

Glutaronitrile(GN) was introduced to diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A(DGEBA)/ 4,4'-methylene dianiline(MDA) system to improve toughness. Effects of GN contents on thermal decomposition of epoxy resin system were investigated. To study the characteristics of thermal decomposition, thermo-gravimetric analysis(TGA) and Kissinger equation were used. Thermal degradation temperatures were about 365$^{\circ}C$ regardless of GN contents. Activation energies of thermal decomposition in epoxy resin system were almost constant below 10 phr and decreased above 15 phr.
