Preparation And Characterization Of Epoxidized Soybean Oil Based Thermoset, Blends And Nanocomposites

Epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) was thermally-cured with methylhexahydropthalic anhydride (MHHPA) curing agent in the presence of two different types of catalysts, i.e., 2-ethyl-4-methylimidazole (EMI) and tetraethylammonium bromide (TEAB). The cure kinetics of ESO/MHHPA was studied using the Fourier...
