Supported Ionic Liquid Silica as Curing Agent for Epoxy Composites with Improved Mechanical and Thermal Properties

The present study aims to improve the mechanical properties of epoxy composite by incorporating supported ionic liquid silica (IL-silica). The IL-silica not only showed improved interfacial interaction and reinforcement, but also served as cure agent of epoxy composites. The differential scanning ca...
