| Abstract: | The systems of diepoxides cured with primary amine in presence of an monoepoxide, monofunctional reactive, under equal stoichiometric ratio has been analyzed by a generating function method. The average degree of polymerization, which changed with time or conversion, and gel point were calculated. The profiles of the degree of polymerization and critical conversion are dependent on the content of and relative reactivities of epoxy groups. For a system with the same ratio, the critical epoxy conversion increases with increasing reactivity. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J. Polym. Sci. B Polym. Phys. 36: 2339–2348, 1998 |
