Epoxy micro-balloons are prepared by dropping and stirring of epoxy mixture in heated silicon oil. The mixture of epoxy, curing agent and blowing agent forms sphere particles, which are then blown via the function of blowing ...

This paper reports the synthesis of emulsions of epoxy compounds with various ratios of epoxy, polyamide and calcium carbonate by homogenization in water at room temperature. The emulsion is cured at 80 °C, and during ...

Both poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and polystyrene (PS) were synthesized through suspension polymerization, and porous epoxy microparticles (PEMP) were incorporated in-situ during polymerization. It was discovered that ...

To investigate the interlocking capability of porous epoxy microparticles (PEM) with elastomers, composites of PEM and ENR/NR were prepared on a two-roll mill. A proprietary method was used to produce the PEM, which have ...
