Abstract:
The brightness temperature of shock-compressed EC141 NF epoxy resin was measured by a pyrometric method in the pressure range of 19–42 GPa. The experimental points are in good agreement within the error with the calculation performed in the work. From the results of experiments, it follows that the presumed phase-transition region is not apparent in the pressure–temperature plane. Particle velocity records at the epoxy–water interface suggest the absence of a chemical reaction in EC141 NF epoxy compound at a pressure of 22.5 GPa during the observation time.
