thermosetting resin Explanation: Abstract http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0168900203... A neutron shielding material using a metathesis-polymer matrix, which is a thermosetting resin, was developed. This shielding material has characteristics that can be controlled for different mixing ratios of neutron absorbers and for formation in the laboratory. Additionally, the elastic modulus can be changed at the hardening process, from a flexible elastoma to a mechanically tough solid.

Reference: metathesis = double decomposition reaction Reference information: 1. double decomposition reaction - a chemical reaction between two compounds in which parts of each are interchanged to form two new compounds (AB+CD=AD+CB) double decomposition, metathesis. www.thefreedictionary.com/double decomposition reaction -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day4 hrs (2017-06-16 09:32:21 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- To be honest I don't really understand it. It appears to be a matrix of a polymer plus metathesis - but of course "metathesis" is not a material but rather a process/type of reaction. I don't agree with "herbalchemist" - "The metathesis polymer matrix is the reaction mixture before thermosetting", the source text states "using a metathesis-polymer matrix" which makes me think it refers to a material rather than a process, afterall, a matrix is a material. The source seems confusing to me because it combines a material with a process and calls it a material, but I'm really not very sure. I never liked polymer chemistry. |
