The differential incoherent scattering cross sections of 320 kev photons by K-shell electrons of lead, tantalum and samarium are experimentally determined employing a fast-slow coincidence scintillation spectrometer by the degraded photon Kx-ray coincidence technique at angles of scattering 45", 60", 90" and 110'. T h e results are compared with the computed values and the trends of the incoherent scattering function are discussed.
SYNOPSISThe effects of various curing accelerators on the physical properties of epoxy molding compounds (EMCs) were investigated. Such properties as elasticities in rubbery and glassy regions, glass transition temperature, thermal expansion coefficient, and water absorption at 60°C of neat epoxy resins using various curing accelerators were found to be directly reflected in the properties of the EMCs that were prepared by using each resin system. However, volume resistivity and saturated water absorption at 120°C were not reflected. This was attributed to differences in the catalytic reactivity of accelerators causing different melt viscosity for the EMC, which resulted in different densities (packing degrees) and affected physical properties of molded EMC. On the other hand, it was found that the density of molded EMC was also affected by the molding conditions. To improve the physical properties of the molded EMC, in addition to proper selection of accelerators, it was very important to set the melt viscosity of the EMC as high as possible within the moldable range and to select suitable molding conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
