A comparison of some imidazoles in the curing of epoxy resin

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

An epoxy-imidazole resin system was used to form an anisotropic conducting film (ACF) for electronic equipment applications. In this study, the curing behaviors of an epoxy resin with imidazole, 2-methylimidazole, 2-ethylimidazole, 2-phenylimidazole, 1-methylimidazole, 2-ethyl-4(5)-methylimidazole,and 1-(2-cyanoethyl)-2-ethyl-4(5)-methylimidazole were investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and the curing times were determined at 150 and 180 8C. The polymerization mechanism for the epoxy resin with imidazoles was examined, and the DSC results matched the mechanism. 2-Methylimidazole exhibited the fastest reaction time among the imidazoles used in this study.
