Rheology of Thermosets eBook

By Dr. Jeff Gotro

thumbnail iPad rheology of thermosetsHave you ever had a question about measuring the rheological properties of thermosets?

Didn’t know what is the right experimental approach to get the right rheological information?

Need to measure the viscosity-shear rate for an uncured thermoset formulation?

Had a question on how does the rheology relate to the curing process?

Wondered how the viscosity profile impacts the composite fabrication process?

Would like to see a “real life” example in a case study on the lamination of a thermoset composite?

The Rheology of Thermosets has been significantly updated and expanded to cover:

  • What is rheology and how it relates to thermosets

  • How curing chemistry impacts the rheology and flow during processing, that is the chemorheology of thermosets

  • Rheological methods used for thermosets; controlled stress and controlled strain measurments

  • Rheological measurements on uncured formulations; viscosity-shear rate, shear thinning, thixotropy

  • How to measure the Isothermal rheology during curing

  • Non-isothermal rheology during curing

  • A comprehensive case-study demonstrating some of the key concepts of rheology during thermoset processing

The 90 page eBook also contains an extensive reference list for further study.
