In this work, the effect of cationic initiator content on the electron-beam (EB) curing process of diglycidylether of bisphenol-A (DGEBA) resin was studied using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and critical stress intensity factor $(K_{IC})$. Benzylquinoxalinium hexafluoroantimonate (BQH) were used as an initiator and its content was varied from 0.5 to 3 phr. NIRS measurements showed that the hydroxyl group of EB-cured epoxy resin was increased with increasing the BQH content. Thermal stability and $K_{IC}$ value of EB-cured epoxy resin were increased with increasing the BQH content but were decreased above 2 phr content. These results could be attributed to the decrease of the conversion and degree of crosslinking. In another word, the conversion and degree of crosslinking were restricted by the incomplete network structure from high reactivity at the BQH content above 2 phr, resulting in decreasings of thermal stability and $K_{IC}$.

Epoxy resin has less reaction shrinkage, has better water proofing and thermal resistance than other repairing materials, to it has been applied broadly to repair and finish buildings and infrastructures. Although the ambient temperature constructed is varied with the seasons and epoxy resin has to mix with appropriate hardener due to the non self-hardening, as the real construction of it, the ambient temperature is ignored and the blending ration of epoxy resin and hardener is fixed. Also, because of the hardening time is aimed to temperature condition and the tolerance of blending ratio, we investigated the variation of viscosity according to ambient temperatures and hardener ratios. As a results of study, we can select the economical blending ratio of the epoxy resin and hardener according to site situation.

In this work, diglycidylether of bisphenol-S (DGEBS) epoxy resin was prepared by alkaline condensation of bisphenol-S (BPS) with epichlorohydrin (ECH) in the presence of NaOH catalyst. The structure of the synthesized DGEBS epoxy resin was confirmed by IR, NMR spectra, and elemental analysis. The curing reaction and glass transition temperature ($T_g$) of DGEBS epoxy resin cured with phthalic anhydride (PA) and tetrahydrophthalic anhydride (THPA) at curing agents were studied by dynamic differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The thermal stability of the cured specimen was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). As a result, the activation energy ($E_a$) of DGEBS/PA system was higher than that of DGEBS/THPA system, whereas $T_g$, initial decomposed temperature (IDT), and decomposition activation energy ($E_t$) of DGEBS/PA were lower than those of DGEBS/THPA. This was probably due to the fact that the crosslinking density of DGEBS/THPA was increased by ring strain of curing agent.

Epoxy resins have been widely used for many applications along with good processibility. However, epoxy resin systems have poor hot/wet performance properties and brittleness after resin curing and have limited to apply for environmental resistant materials. In order to improve the toughness of epoxy resin, this review article deals with incorporation method of rubber and high performance thermoplastics into the matrix resin. In addition, molecular design of epoxy resin and modification of thermoplastic have been introduced for improving hot/wet properties of epoxy resin.

The purpose of this study is to develop the epoxy-modified mortars and concretes without hardener having a good balance between performance and cost. In this study, the epoxy-modified and concretes without and with the hardener are prepared with various polymer-cement ratios, and tested for the mechanical properties of the epoxy-modified mortars and concretes without and with the hardener. From the test results, the epoxy-modified mortars and concretes without the hardener having an excellent mechanical properties are developed at low polymer-cement ratios of 10 to 20% compared with those of conventional epoxy-modified mortars and concretes with the hardener.

To determine the effect of chain length and chemical structure of linear amine curing agents on thermal and mechanical properties, a standard bifunctional linear DGEBF epoxy resin was cured with EDA and HMDA having amine group at the both ends of main chain in a stoichiometrically equivalent ratio in condition of preliminary and post cure. From this work, the effect of linear amine curing agents on the thermal and mechanical properties is significantly influenced by numbers of carbon atoms of main chain. In contrast, the results show that the DCEBF/EDA system having two carbons had higher values in the thermal stability, density, shrinkage (%), grass transition temperature, tensile modulus and strength, flexural modulus and strength than the DGEBF/HMDA system having six carbons, whereas the DGEBF/EDA cure system had relatively low values in maximum ekothermic temperature, maximum conversion of epoxide, thermal expansion coefficient than the DGEBF/HDMA cure system. These findings indicate that the packing capability (rigid property) in the EDA structure affects the thermal and mechanical properties predominantly. It shows that flexural fracture properties have a close relation to flexural modulus and strength.

Analysis of wettability between epoxy resin and glass fabric was studied. The mixing ratios of epoxy resin and anhydride hardener were varied as 1:0.5, l:l and l:1.2. Catalyst content was fixed as 0.1wt% of the mixed resin. A curing analysis by differential scanning calorimeter(DSC) showed a possible impregnation of the mixed resin at the room temperature. An effective contact angle of the mixed epoxy resin drop onto the glass fabric being preset on a flat glass plate was measured as a function of time. The wet area of the epoxy resin drop was also measured. Behaviors of the contact angle, the droplet height, the neat wet area and the coefficient of wettability were used to evaluate the wettability of the epoxy resin onto the glass fabric. It was concluded that the equivalent ratio of 1: 1.2 was the most suitable for the wettability.
