“…11 Furthermore, it has been observed that in addition to energy, bulk polymerization of DCPD occurs as a function of catalyst content, 11,12 yet the increased catalyst concentration of Experiment 14 did not yield any toughness recovery.…”

The autonomic healing ability of an epoxy adhesive containing micro-encapsulated dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) was evaluated. The epoxy resin used was Epon 828 cured with either Versamid 140 or diethylenetriamine (DETA). Variables included total weight percent of microcapsules (MCs) and catalyst, as well as the catalyst to DCPD ratio. The degree of healing was determined by the fracture toughness before and after 'healing' using double-cantilever beam analysis. It was found that the degree of self-healing was most directly related to the contact area (i.e. crack width) during healing. Temperature also played a significant role. Observed differences between the results of this study and those in literature are discussed.4

“…Since 2000, our research group has been active in this field [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. Namely, we have studied the application of FP to the synthesis of polyurethanes [20,21], polydicyclopentadiene [22], polyacrylates [23], interpenetrating polymer networks composed of polydicyclopentadiene and polyacrylates [24], polyester resins [25,26] and epoxy resins [27].…”

Abstract:Frontal Polymerization was successfully exploited as an innovative technique for the consolidation of Neapolitan Yellow Tuff, the main volcaniclastic rock of Campania region (Italy). The protocol used and the full characterization in terms of mechanical properties of the resulting consolidated stone are presented here and discussed together with the data obtained by X-ray tomography as a non destructive analytical technique for determining the internal map of the consolidated material. The proposed treatment definitely succeeded from the technical point of view resulting in an enhancement of mechanical properties.

Abstract:The first frontal atom transfer radical polymerization (FATRP) has been successfully carried out using tri(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate as a monomer. The effect of the catalyst/initiator ratio has been investigated and related to the front velocity and its maximum temperature. By comparing this new approach with classical radical polymerization routes and with conventional frontal polymerization, it was found that the so-obtained polymer is characterized by higher conversion, shorter reaction times, higher degradation temperature, and does not contain entrapped bubbles.
