Detection and Characterization of Water-Induced Reversion of Epoxy and Urethane Potting Compounds

Abstract

Chemiluminescence, infrared, and nuclear magnetic resonance measurements have all been successfully used to detect changes in epoxy and urethane systems which soften when subjected to moisture and/or temperature. The data from these measurements correlated with changes in the polymer systems are determined by weight gain (or loss) and hardness tests.
