Abstract
Epoxy is a thermosetting polymer known for its excellent adhesion, thermal stability, chemical resistance and mechanical properties. However, one of the major drawbacks of epoxies is its inherent brittleness. In order to overcome this drawback, incorporation of a thermoplastic as a second phase has proven to improve the impact strength without affecting the mechanical properties of epoxy. Researchers in the past have studied polyamide/epoxy blends in terms of blend compatibility, thermo-mechanical properties and morphology via solution blending.
