DOI: 10.1016/j.compscitech.2016.11.023
Abstract: Abstract Out-time and moisture absorption during out-of-autoclave (OoA) prepreg preparation are generally unavoidable. The resulting cross-linking and increase in resin viscosity can prevent sufficient flow into the fiber tows during processing and cause porosity. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.porgcoat.2019.105217
Abstract: Abstract Graphene oxide (GO) nanoflakes are reactive towards both epoxy resin and amine curing agent, but their inevitable agglomeration worsens resin/hardener/nanoflake interfacial interactions. In this work, starch was used to functionalize GO nanoflakes. Isoconversional cure… read more here.
