Summary: Biobased neat epoxy materials containing epoxidized linseed oil (ELO) were processed with an amine curing agent. A defined amount of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol F (DGEBF) was replaced by ELO. The thermophysical properties of the amine‐cured biobased neat epoxy were measured by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). The Izod impact strength increased with an increase in the amount of ELO added. The change in the Izod impact strength was correlated with the thermophysical properties measured by DMA.Relation between the Izod impact strength and loss factor for amine‐ and anhydride‐cured ELO‐containing epoxy resins.
