Characterizing resin extent of cure kinetics is critical to understanding the structure–property-
processing relationships of polymers. The disorder band present in the low-frequency region …

The cure kinetics of epoxy cured with an amine hardener is investigated using a
combination of light scattering techniques. Concurrent Raman and Brillouin scattering are …

Polymerization reactions are based on complex processes that are somewhat difficult to
predict via mathematical models, especially without experimental data. A method to …

The curing of bis-methacrylate–styrene resins initiated by the cobalt catalyzed
decomposition of cumyl hydroperoxide is monitored at ambient temperatures in situ by EPR …

FT-IR spectroscopy has traditionally been used to determine the degree of conversion of
dental resins. FT-Raman scattering provided an alternate method of obtaining degrees of …

The thermal cure of a commercial TGDDM/DDS epoxy resin was monitored by FT-Raman
spectroscopy and the spectral changes were interpreted in terms of the mechanism of cure …

Fourier transform (FT)-Raman spectroscopy was used to monitor the curing reaction of a
polyimide bonding agent, the Ciba-Geigy Matrimid® system. Major Raman bands were …

The curing process of unsaturated polyester resins, vinyl ester resins, and gel coats was
studied by using a process Raman spectrometer, equipped with a remote fiber‐optic probe …
