The incident and scattered light engaged in the Raman scattering process of low symmetry crystals always suffer from the birefringence-induced depolarization. Therefore, for anisotropic crystals, the classical Raman selection rules should be corrected by taking the birefringence effect into consideration. The appearan…

ABSTRACT The monofunctional glycidyl ether of eugenol (GE) was used as a reactive diluent for the diglycidyl ether of diphenolate n‐ pentyl ester (DGEDP‐Pe). Viscosities of GE and DGEDP‐Pe are 25 mPa s and 11 Pa s, respectively. Compositions GE/DGEDP‐Pe epoxy resins with 5, 10, 15, 20, and 30 wt % GE were analyzed for…
