Abstract
A conversion–temperature phase diagram for thermosetting polymers is analyzed. The curing under different external conditions—isothermal, at a constant heating rate, adiabatic, and in a mold at constant wall temperature—is represented by definite trajectories in the phase diagram. Conditions related to incomplete curing or falsification of kinetic parameters are stated.Keywords
