The curing behavior of epoxy resins prepared by reacting epichlorohydrin with 4,4′‐diaminodiphenyl methane (DADPM)/4,4′‐diaminodiphenyl ether (DADPE) or 4,4′‐diaminodiphenyl sulfone (DDS) was investigated using DDS and tris ‐( m ‐aminophenyl)phosphine oxide (TAP) as curing agents. A broad exothermic transition with two maxima were observed in the temperature range of 100–315°C when TAP was used as the curing agent. The effect of varying DDS concentration on curing behavior of epoxy resin was also investigated. Peak exotherm temperature ( T exo ) decreased with increasing concentration of DDS, whereas heat of curing (Δ H ) increased with an increase in amine concentration up to an optimum value and then decreased. Thermal stability of the resins, cured isothermally at 200°C for 3 h, was investigated using thermogravimetric analysis in a nitrogen atmosphere. Glass fiber‐reinforced multifunctional epoxy resin laminates were fabricated and the mechanical properties were evaluated. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
