    AI Overview
    Active diluents are low-molecular-weight epoxy compounds (usually mono- or di-functional glycidyl ethers) added to epoxy resins to reduce viscosity, improve flow, and increase wetting without causing significant shrinkage or performance loss. Unlike solvents, they react with curing agents to become part of the final polymer network. 
    Key Aspects of Active Diluents 
    • Viscosity Reduction: They facilitate higher filler loading and improve flow-ability, making it easier to mix, pour, and reduce bubble entrapment.
    • Reactivity: They contain epoxy groups, allowing them to chemically bond during curing rather than evaporating.
    • Performance Impact: They can increase flexibility and improve low-temperature cracking resistance.
    • Common Types:
      • Monofunctional: Include phenyl glycidyl ether (PGE) and alkyl (

        C14cap C sub 14
        𝐶14
        ) glycidyl ether (AGE).
      • Difunctional: Includes butanediol diglycidyl ether, which maintains better structural integrity.
