Liquid chromatographic (LC) methods are developed for the quality control of epoxy resin formulations. Primary components in two different commercial resin formulations are separated by LC and identified by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Standard test methods for fingerprinting and specific component analysis are established. Examples are given of applications of the test methods to determine compositional variations in prepregs and to establish acceptance criteria for prepreg quality control.
