This is the fourth article in a series describing efforts to produce tough, high-performance thermosets from very low viscosity prepolymers which are autoclave processable. Hydroxy-terminated hyperbranched polyester (HBP) with a systematically increased molar mass was used to toughen bismaleimide (B

This article describes the use of hyperbranched polyester oligomers (HBPs) as modifiers for epoxy thermosets. The effect of HBP molar mass, end group, and loading on prepolymer viscosity, thermoset fracture toughness, T g , and high-temperature dynamic storage modulus (EЈ) were measured. The HBP mol

The fracture toughness of epoxy thermosets was increased by up to 220% using very low-molecular-weight (ϳ 1000 g/mol) imide thermoplastic. The objective was to produce a low-viscosity prepolymer that could be easily autoclave-processed to give a tough thermoset. Here, an homogenous epoxy prepolymer
