Abstract
The one-to-one relationship between the glass transition temperature and the extent of reaction of biphenyl-type epoxy/phenol novolac resin system was interpreted by using DiBenedetto's equation and DiMarzio's equation modified by Hale. The relationship between the glass transition temperature and curing time was investigated by diffusion-controlled cure kinetic equation and Hale's equation. By combining these two equations, it was possible to construct the time-temperature-transformation (TTT) isothermal cure diagram.
