The levodopa (L-DOPA) has been reported as a promising adhesive for various materials. In this study, we utilized L-DOPA as an interfacial agent for phosphate glass fibre/polycaprolactone (PGF/PCL) composites, with the aim to enhance the interfacial...

Controlling mass loss from RTM6 epoxy resin under simulated vacuum infusion conditions (2022)
Journal Article
Parsons, A. J., Gonciaruk, A., Zeng, X., Thomann, F. S., Schubel, P., Lorrillard, J., & Johnson, M. S. (2022). Controlling mass loss from RTM6 epoxy resin under simulated vacuum infusion conditions. Polymer Testing, 107, Article 107473. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.polymertesting.2022.107473

A certified aerospace resin (RTM 6) normally utilised for resin transfer moulding is considered for vacuum infusion. The resin was subjected to simulated vacuum infusion conditions by using a specialised thermogravimetric analysis that enables contro...
