ASTM D5028 : 96(2003)

Standard Test Method for Curing Properties of Pultrusion Resins by Thermal Analysis

Standard Details

1.1 This test method covers determination of curing parameters of pultrusions resins by differential scanning calorimetry.

1.2 This test method is applicable to pultrusion resin solutions with adequate initiator(s).

1.3 The normal operating temperature range is from 0 to 200°C.

Note 1—Resin systems which do not form an adequate baseline are not covered by this test method.

1.4 Computer or electronic based instruments or data treatment equivalent to this practice may also be used.

1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
