Özet
Fatty acid waste was recycled as raw material and utilized to synthesize epoxy (HP) or unsaturated ester group (OEE) containing polymers. The radicalic polymerization between the styrene and itaconic acid was carried out, too. Glycidyl ester of styrene-itaconic acid copolymer was obtained by esterification reaction with epichlorohydrin. The polymers were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and chemical analysis. The polymers were incorporated into diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A type commercial epoxy resin to prepare composites. The effects of polymer structure and amount on the physico-mechanical and thermal properties of epoxy were investigated. Surface hardness, tensile strength, percentage elongation and stress at maximum load of the composites were obtained higher than pure epoxy resin. The composites reinforced with bio-based polymers showed about 74.55243% increase in elastic modulus over the pure epoxy matrix. Obtained Young's modulus values were higher for composites with styrene-based polymers. (C) 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012
