Regarding epoxy resins
Thread Content
Dear experts and seniors, I would like to ask why, in the production process of epoxy resins, the softening point and the epoxy groups are necessary parameters, while viscosity is not. What is the relationship between these two parameters and viscosity? Since we are not very familiar with this process flow, please give us some guidance
During our testing, we measure the softening point, the epoxy value, and the chlorine content. The higher the softening point, the greater the molecular weight; correspondingly, the epoxy value is lower while the epoxy equivalent is higher, resulting in higher viscosity. On the contrary, as for whether there is a specific epoxy value or whether a specific softening point corresponds to a specific viscosity, I’m not sure about that.
Reply to 2# kunziyihao: Thank you for your support; I’ve learned a lot
I finally understand that in the epoxy resin industry, the softening point can be determined by measuring viscosity online, allowing for timely adjustments to be made
Are there any other opinions from everyone? Feel free to post, thank you.
Okay, thank you. If you have any new ideas, please share them actively.
