N2 - In this study, we investigated the curing reaction of epoxy resin by experiment and numerical simulation. The experiment approach used differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to obtain curing curves of epoxy resin by mixing curing agents and base resins. The computational approach used the molecular orbital method (MO) and the molecular dynamics method (MD) to consider activation energy, heat of formation, and polarization in the curing reaction. Focusing on three types of base resin and three types of curing agent, we clarified that the curing agent is the main factor that controls curing characteristics.
