## Abstract Failure of the blends of epoxy cresol novolac resin (ECN) with varied proportions of carboxy terminated polybutadiene (CTPB) liquid functional rubber was studied. Addition of CTPB improves toughness as reflected in the improvement of tensile, flexural, and impact properties. However, 10

## Abstract Toughened polymers were prepared by adding CTBN rubbers to DGEBAโtype epoxy resins. Structure was varied by altering the type and concentration of hardener, the initial molecular weight of the resin, the amount of Bisphenol **A** added, and the conditions of cure. Electron microscopy sh
The feasibility of using solid acrylonitrileยฑbutadiene rubbers (NBR) with 19 and 33% w/w acrylonitrile to toughen diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) epoxy resins has been investigated. Thermal analysis experiments revealed a two-phase morphology of these rubber-modiยฎed epoxies. However, the hig
Carboxyl-terminated poly(2-ethylhexyl acrylate) (CTPEHA) liquid rubbers of different molecular weights and functionalities (LR-1 to LR-6) were synthesized by bulk and solution polymerization techniques. The liquid rubbers were characterized by nonaqueous titration, vapor pressure osmometry, and gel
