Abstract :
A novel method has been developed to produce sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) epoxy foam. This material consists of the highly electronegative SF6 gas trapped in closed epoxy cells. In order to assure that the material retained the unique properties attributed to SF6, changes in SF6 content as a function of thermal aging were measured via Neutron Activation Analysis. Provided the materials tested were maintained below their glass transition temperatures, the results indicated SF6 was retained.
