“…Simultaneously, this time the IR spectrum C does not show the negative bands, as was observed for both the first and the second stage of decomposition. The whole disappearance of the OH vibration bands in the IR spectrum B can be due to elimination of water and higher phenols, in accordance with other data reported for decomposition of various epoxy resins [4,8,9,19]. In the third stage of degradation EMBA suffer, in succession, a thermodestruction process, which is accompanied by some parallel competitive reactions of random polymer segments formed in both the first and the second stage.…”
