Process for monitoring the curing reaction of the polymeric matrix of a composite material

摘要

The process for monitoring the curing reaction of a polymeric matrix, in which carbon nanotubes are dispersed whereby a composite material is formed, provides for:- arranging an electric circuit comprising at least a generator (12) of a substantially constant voltage, an amperemeter (14) and two electrodes (16) immersed into the composite material, whereby the composite material interposed between the electrodes (16) closes the electrical circuit, and- tracing the current intensity value measured by the amperemeter, which is correlated to the progress of the curing reaction of the polymeric matrix, so as to control said progress.
