Experimental and theoretical insights on the thermal oxidation of epoxy-amine networks

This paper reports an investigation of the oxidation three epoxy-amine networks obtained from DGEBA cured with sorts aliphatic hardeners ethylene diamine (EDA), diethylene triamine (DETA), and triethylene tetraamine (TETA). Oxidation was monitored by FTIR innovative discussion CH2 consumption. Methylene groups held were shown to be more sensitive oxidation, which confirmed a Bond Dissociation Energies (BDE) computed machine-learning approach.
