Abstract: | The effects of three series of unsaturated polyester (UP) resins with different chemical composition or structure on the mechanical properties of three low-shrink UP resins containing thermoplastic polyurethane, poly(vinyl acetate) and poly(methyl methacrylate) respectively have been investigated by an integrated approach of static phase characteristics–cured sample morphology–reaction conversion–property measurements. The three series of UP resins synthesized include: maleic anhydride (MA)–neopentyl glycol (NPG)–diethylene glycol (DEG) types, with various molar ratios of NPG and DEG; MA–1,2-propylene glycol (PG) types with and without modification by a saturated dibasic aromatic anhydride or acid, such as phthalic anhydride (PA) or isophthalic acid; and MA–PA–PG types modified by a second glycol, such as DEG, 2-methyl-1,3-propanediol or NPG, to partially replace PG. Based on the Takayanagi mechanical models, the effects of glycol ratios, saturated dibasic aromatic acid modification, second glycol modification, C=C unsaturation of UP and molecular weight of UP on the mechanical properties will be discussed. |
