Notes:
It is shown that the Williams-Landel-Ferry equation can be taken to describe the temperature dependence of viscosity of an amine-cured epoxy resin. Furthermore, for this resin system, the two parameters of the W-L-F equation can be expressed simply as functions of hardener concentration. Since the hardener concentration decreases with advancement, and since the reaction rate equation for advancement is readily determined and known, the viscosity can be calculated over any temperature (cure) cycle.
