β¦ Synopsis
Positron lifetime measurement has been applied to the investigation of solidification from the liquid state to the solid state in epoxy with different mixing ratios of resin and hardener. It has been shown that the mixing ratios and the physical states of liquid, gel, and solid affect positronium formation. In samples with an excess of hardener, long-lived components were observed in the liquid and gel states, while they disappeared after solidification. Positronium formation in epoxy is strongly affected by the heating process of epoxy samples.
