Abstract

The Hugoniot states and spall strength for EPON 828 with curing agents ethylenedianiline (EDA), and diaminodibenzocyclooctane (DADBCO) isomer mixture were measured using a forward ballistic experiment. They were compared with previous studies on EPON 828 using a variety of curing agents. As shown previously the Hugoniot has no dependence on the curing agent, however the spall strength is strongly dependent on curing agent. Differences in strength based on curing agent are discussed.
