Theory of Gelation: Post-Gelation Behavior
arXiv:cond-mat/0410232
Abstract
Within the framework of the random distribution assumption of cyclic bonds, the preceding theory of gelation is extended to mixing systems with various functionalities. To examine the validity of the assumption, the theory is applied to experimental data in polyurethane network formation, the result showing the soundness of the theory for the prediction of gel points and gel fraction.
