Electrospinning of epoxy fibers

M. Shneider et al.

Summary: By dissolving epoxy in a solvent and controlling crosslinking, successful electrospinning of epoxy fibers with higher performance has been achieved. The resulting nanofibers exhibit about 80% higher strength and stiffness, and approximately 900% higher elongation and 1200% higher toughness. Additionally, there is a size-dependence of strength on fiber diameter, with a significant increase in strength observed in fibers with diameters below 3 micrometers.

The effect of hydrogen bond on the thermal and mechanical properties of furan epoxy resins: Molecular dynamics simulation study

Wanying Li et al.

Summary: This study utilized molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the impact of hydrogen bonds on epoxy networks. The results showed that H-bonds significantly affected the Young's modulus, whereas their influence on T-g was limited compared to factors like molecular weight and steric hindrance. This study provides valuable insights into the behavior of H-bonds in furan rings and may guide the design of epoxy resins effectively.

Electrospun Thermosetting Carbon Nanotube-Epoxy Nanofibers

Nojan Aliahmad et al.

Summary: This paper presents the fabrication and characterization of submicron carbon nanotube (CNT)-epoxy nanocomposite filaments using an electrospinning process. The approach of partial curing of epoxy without the need for additives allows for the production of submicron epoxy filaments. Incorporating a low amount of CNT led to improved structural, electrical, and thermal stabilities in the developed filaments suitable for various applications.
