The properties of epoxy resins containing arsenic acrylate have been compared with that of a blank epoxy resin (DGEBA). The values of epoxide equivalent, hydroxyl content, hydrolyzable chlorine content, and specific gravity increased, whereas refractive index decreased in the epoxy resins containing arsenic acrylate (AsA 3 ). This is attributed to a complex formation between an As and an oxygen atom in the resin, as evidenced from IR spectroscopy. The reaction is first order (ER 3 ) with an activation energy of 53 kJ/mole. The epoxy resin with As cured with polyamide at 30°C, showed chemical resistance and excellent thermal stability compared with blank epoxy resin (epoxy resin without As).
