ABSTRACTThe temperature dependence of the ballistic impact performance of a series of transparent polymer networks is evaluated. A systematic series of homogeneous epoxy/propylene‐oxide‐based thermosets, a nanoscale phase‐separated epoxy/dual amine thermoset, and two homogeneous, completely aliphatic materials synthesized via ring‐opening metathesis polymerization are examined. The Vogel temperature (To) and the Kauzmann temperature (TK) are critical parameters for scaling the temperature‐dependent ballistic impact performance of each class of materials. The ductile‐to‐brittle transition temperature in a series of propylene‐oxide amine‐cured epoxies occurs at the material TK, corresponding to a sharp drop in fracture toughness and ballistic impact performance. Two aliphatic, ring‐opening metathesis polymerized materials are found to exhibit no clear transition from purely ductile to purely brittle behavior, but the temperature dependence is still scaled to a single curve when normalized by To. The cooperatively rearranging region (CRR) or the volume of this region is related to the breadth of temperatures over which these materials exhibit purely ductile deformation both quasi‐statically and at higher rates. The temperature‐dependent performance is discussed in the context of the configurational entropy. The breadth of the ductility window is related to the size of the CRR, calculated from calorimetric measurements at the resin Tg. Published 2019.
