Abstract

Epoxy polymers have emerged as the dominant form of matrix material employed in the manufacture of carbon fiber reinforced composite parts for load bearing structural applications. The variety of epoxy systems that are available, as well as the fact that their properties depend strongly on the network structure they form, has provided a strong motivation for studies on the description of the network.
