The modulus increased from 0.01 MPa in the first minutes to over 1.2 MPa within 20 min. The set-up also enabled the recording of vitrification followed by curing times. These typically occur within 3 min of each other. The results of DMA are corroborated by measurements of the reaction kinetics with Infrared Spectroscopy. This goes to show that the modulus remains nearly unchanged during the stage of swiftest isocyanate conversion, while the point of gel conversion is accompanied by their increase.
