ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT
Received: 04 May 2021 The unique properties of epoxy polymers have led to their wide application
Accepted: 17 June 2021 in various fields of modern technology. The influence of the structure of
Published: 3° July 2021 bisphenols on the properties of epoxy polymers, especially thermal ones, is
known. However, the chemical structure of the hardener also affects the
KEYWORDS properties of cured epoxy polymers. As hardeners, we used acid hardeners of
polymer, oligomer, bisphenol, various structures: anhydrides of maleic, phthalic, pyromellite,
norbornan, diaminodiphenylsulphon, methyltetrahydrophthalic and other acids. The following hardeners give high
thermomechanicalcurves, glycidic, results in heat resistance: pyromellite and methyltetrahydrophthalic
polycyclic, anhydride, anhydrides. Polymers obtained by curing with these hardeners are deformed
thrrmogravimetric, analysis, in the temperature range of 220-245°C. The use of these hardeners gives
itema^ heat stabU^ structure, high results in terms of thermal stability. These polymers are formed by
hardener, cyclic. curing these components.
It is known that the properties of epoxy polymers depend on the chemical structure of the glycide ether. There was some interest in investigating the influence on the properties of epoxy polymers as a chemical structure, as well as the nature of hardeners. For this purpose, diglycidal esters based on bisphenols were synthesized.

It is known that the properties of epoxy polymers depend on the chemical structure of the glycide ether [1-7]. There was some interest in investigating the influence on the properties of epoxy polymers as a chemical structure, as well as the nature of hardeners. For this purpose, diglycidal esters based on bisphenols were synthesized. Table 1 shows the characteristics of diglycidal esters.

Fig. 2. Thermomechanical curve of an epoxy polymer based on glycide ether 4,4'-(3-methyl-2-norbomylmethylene)diphenol The hardener is methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride.
Fig. 3. Thermogravimetric curve of an epoxy polymer based on the glycide ether of 4,4'-(3-methyl-2-norbomylmethylene)diphenol The hardener is methyl tetrahydrophthalic anhydride.
As can be seen from the data in the table and figures, cured epoxy polymers are characterized by a fairly high heat resistance. High results in heat resistance are given by the following hardeners:pyromellite and methyltetra-hydrophthalic anhydrides. Polymers obtained by curing with these hardeners are deformed in the temperature range of 220-245°C. It should be particularly noted that the polymers formed during curing with maleic anhydride are deformed at 310°C. This can obviously be explained by the formation of additional crosslinking due to the disclosure of the double bonds present in maleic anhydride.
The use of the hardeners listed in Table 2 gives high results in terms of heat resistance. In all cases, the polymers formed by curing these components decrease in mass by 10% in the temperature range of 340-400°C.
From the hardeners listed in Table 2, based on the results obtained by us, some were selected for the purpose of curing the glycide esters of 4,4'-(2-norbornylmethylene)diphenol and 4,4'-(3-methyl-2-norbornylmethylene)diphenol. Table 3 and Figures 2 and 3 show the properties of polymers obtained by curing the above glycide esters with methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride.

Based on these data, the thermal heat resistance of the cured polymers does not change significantly compared to the polymers obtained by curing the glycide ether of 4,4'-(3-methyl-2-norbornylmethylene)diphenol. Obviously, the change in the structure of the cyclic group does not affect these indicators.
As the study showed, the epoxy polymers obtained by curing the glycide esters listed in Table 1 of cyclic bisphenols with these hardeners are characterized by high heat and heat resistance, which causes some practical interest. It is only necessary to pay attention to the fact, the ester of 4,4'-(3-methyl-2-norbornylmethylene)diphenol is slightly higher than that of polymers based on other bisphenols.
