In this study, bio‐based epoxy materials containing functionalized plant oil, such as epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) and epoxidized linseed oil (ELO), were processed with 4‐methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride (MHPA) as a curing agent. In the presence of tetraethylammonium bromide, the curing reaction of epoxidized plant oil and MHPA proceeded at 130 °C to give transparent plant oil‐based epoxy materials. The resulting bio‐based epoxy materials exhibited relatively soft and flexible characters, due to the aliphatic chains of plant oil. The thermal and mechanical properties of the ESO/MHPA polymers depended on the feed molar ratio of anhydride to oxirane. The mechanical properties such as tensile strength and Young's modulus of the ELO/MHPA polymer increased, compared with those of the ESO/MHPA polymer. The glass transition temperature of the ELO/MHPA polymer was higher than that of the ESO/MHPA polymer, because of the high oxirane number of ELO. Furthermore, the ELO/MHPA polymer showed excellent shape memory property. 相似文献
The new biobased nanocomposites are processed from anhydride-cured epoxidized linseed oil (ELO)/ or octyl epoxide linseedate (OEL)/diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF) epoxy matrix and organomontmorillonite clay. The selection of anhydride curing agent and biobased epoxy resulted in an excellent combination to provide an epoxy matrix having high elastic modulus, high glass transition temperature, and high heat distortion temperature (HDT), with higher amounts of functionalized vegetable oil (FVO), compared with amine-cured biobased epoxy. The sonication technique was utilized to process the organically-modified clay nanoplatelets in the glassy biobased epoxy network resulting in nanocomposites where the clay nanoplatelets are almost completely exfoliated and homogeneously dispersed in the epoxy network. The processed exfoliated clay nanocomposites showed higher storage modulus compared with the neat epoxy containing the same amount of FVO. Therefore, the lost storage modulus with larger amount of FVO can be regained with exfoliated clay nanoreinforcement. 相似文献
Summary: Biobased neat epoxy materials containing epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) were processed with an anhydride curing agent. A defined amount of the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF) was replaced by ELO. The selection of the DGEBF, ELO, and an anhydride curing agent resulted in an excellent combination, to provide a new biobased epoxy material showing high elastic modulus, high glass transition temperature, and high heat distortion temperature (HDT) with larger amounts of ELO. The Izod impact strength was almost constant while changing the amount of ELO. This is a promising result for future industrial applications in different engineering industries.

Summary: Biobased neat epoxy materials containing epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) were processed with an amine curing agent. A defined amount of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF) was replaced by ELO. The thermophysical properties of the amine‐cured biobased neat epoxy were measured by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The Izod impact strength increased with an increase in the amount of ELO added. The change in the Izod impact strength was correlated with the thermophysical properties measured by DMA.

In this work we have developed polymeric materials from epoxidized vegetable oils in order to obtain materials with excellent mechanical properties for use as green matrix composites. Epoxidized soybean oil (ESO), epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) and different mixtures of the two oils were used to produce the polymers. Phthalic anhydride (17 mol%) and maleic anhydride (83 mol%) which has a eutectic reaction temperature of 48 °C were used as crosslinking agents while benzyl dimethyl amine (BDMA) and ethylene glycol were used as the catalyst and initiator, respectively. The results showed that samples 100ELO and 80ELO20ESO could be used as a matrix in green composites because they demonstrated good mechanical properties. 相似文献
Bio-based epoxy materials were prepared from epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) with an anhydride-curing agent. Variation of anhydride/epoxy ratio (R) was found to have significant effect on the resulting properties of the materials. The properties were studied and compared by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), izod impact, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The glass transition temperature reaches the maximum at stoichiometric ratio related to the cross-link density of the formed networks. These materials are thermally stable but exhibit a rapid decrease as the anhydride/epoxy ratio was increased. 相似文献
Partially epoxidized soybean oil (pESO) and fully epoxidized soybean oil (fESO) were used respectively to modify a diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) resin system in this study. The pESO was prepared by epoxidizing soybean oil and the fESO was purchased as it was commercially available. DGEBA/ESO ratio of the epoxy resin system was changed from 100/0 to 70/30 and triethylenetetramine was used as a curing agent. Impact strength of the bio-epoxy resin system with fESO increased with ESO content, but the system with pESO decreased with ESO content. The bio-epoxy resin system with pESO showed higher tensile strength and elongation at break than the system with fESO at ESO 30 wt%. Tensile modulus and thermal degradation temperature decreased with ESO content and glass transition temperature was highest at 20 wt% ESO regardless of epoxide functionality of ESO. The performance of the DGEBA/ESO bio-epoxy resin system could be tailored by changing ESO content and functionality. 相似文献
This study focuses on synthesis of waterborne epoxy (WBE) derived from epoxidized soybean oil (ESO) and its compatibility with water-dispersible curing agent Pripol 1009, which is a bioderived long-chain dimer acid. The reaction parameters involved in the synthesis of WBE from ESO have been optimized based on physicochemical properties like hydroxyl value, epoxy equivalent value and degree of solubility of WBE. The WBE obtained after 5 and 6 h of reaction time was found to be of optimum composition with balanced physicochemical properties. The mechanical, thermal and physicochemical properties of WBE obtained after 6 h of reaction time revealed relatively better performance characteristics as compared to ESO. 相似文献
Macroporous epoxy monolith was prepared via chemically induced phase separation using diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) as a monomer, 4,4′-diaminodiphenylmethane (DDM) as a curing agent, and epoxy soybean oil (ESO) as a solvent. The morphology of the cured systems after removal of ESO was examined using scanning electron microscopy, and the composition of epoxy precursors/solvent for phase inversion was determined. The phase-separation mechanism was deduced from the optic microscopic images to be spinodal decomposition. The pore structure of the cured monolith was controlled by a competition between the rates of curing and phase separation. The ESO concentration, content of curing agent, and the curing temperature constituted the influencing factors on the porous morphology. The average pore size increased with increasing ESO concentration, increasing curing temperature, and decreasing the content of curing agent. 相似文献
This paper describes the development of a novel thermoset based on epoxidized hemp seed oil. The optimization of the hardener (anhydride) and crosslinking accelerator (2‐ethylimidazol) concentration as well as the curing parameters are discussed in detail. The optimized material exhibits a bio‐based carbon portion of 57.5 wt% and represents an innovative and sustainable substitute for fully petrochemical‐based resins in terms of thermal and mechanical performance characteristics. However, also a major challenge with regard to practical applications of (bio‐based) thermosets with anhydride curing agent thermosets is identified and addressed: the sensitivity to moisture absorption both during curing and in the fully cured state. 相似文献
