The kinetics of curing for a modified bismaleimide (BMI) has been investigated to ascertain a suitable cure model for the material. The experimental data for characterizing the curing kinetics for a modified bismaleimide resin were determined using a DSC isothermal scan method and indicated a curing mechanism involving multiple reactions. The reaction process was shown to be dominated by a different mechanism at different stages of the cure process, with an initial autocatalytic reaction shifting into an nth order reaction as the reaction proceeded.
