A novel ferrocene‐based epoxy compound of glycidyl ester of 1,1′‐ferrocene dicarboxylate was synthesized by the reaction of 1,1′‐ferrocene dicarboxylate and epichlorohydrin. The resultant epoxy compound showed an irreversible redox process in cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurement. The curing behavior of glycidyl ester of 1,1′‐ferrocene dicarboxylate and dicyandiamide system was investigated by nonisothermal measurement using the Ozawa's approach with the heating rate of 5, 10, 15, and 20°C/min, respectively. It was found that both the diffusion of the compound and the curing temperature have effect on the curing process, and the effect of temperature was greater. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
