Abstract

The viscoelastic behavior of epoxy composites containing various percentage of glass microspheres and random short glass fibers was investigated over a wide range of temperatures. The effect of the second phase is to increase the relaxation moduli of the system and to shift the time dependency to higher times. All the data were shifted to a single master curve at a reference temperature by using independent shift factors that were a function of either temperature or filler content.
