ABSTRACT
290Three different model polymer blends (based on diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A) were investigated by dielectric spectroscopy in comparison with the relevant kinetic and rheokinetic data. These systems are known to set by polycondensation, polycondensation accompanied by microphase separation, and anionic polymerization. It is demonstrated that formation of microgel (and accompanying its microphase separation) and macrogel (of physical and chemical origin) taking place during cure in the systems under study can be reliably detected by dielectrometry.
