Abstract This work investigated the effect of toughening agents on hygrothermal aging resistance ultraviolet (UV) cationic‐cured epoxy resin 3,4‐epoxycyclohexymethyl‐3′,4′‐epoxycyclohexyl carboxylate (CE). After being toughened by polycaprolactone diol (PCL), resulting sample (PCL‐CE) exhibited excellent toughness but poor resistance, with a tensile strength 39.8 MPa and elongation at break 16.9%. poly(tetramethylene ether glycol) (PTMG), (PTMG‐CE) showed good limited toughness, 33.9 8.2%. Another (COFA‐CE) was prepared introducing hydrophobic castor oil fatty acid (COFA) into CE, which combined high PCL‐CE PTMG‐CE, reaching 47.8 12.9%. 72 h 50°C 100% RH, COFA‐CE retained 46.9% 88.8% its original storage modulus, respectively. These were higher than values (16.6% 49.9%) PTMG‐CE (44.5% 77.7%). Finally, study revealed that performance samples degraded due to plasticization caused moisture absorption, properties could be recovered after drying. Highlights Castor employed modify UV‐cured The pre‐reaction between COFA CE increased their compatibility. Epoxy resistance.

Abstract The recently developed embedded printing technique enables composite fabrication by directing a laser beam onto the resin surface to cure it around continuous fiber bundles. This method allows for production of composites with well‐aligned fibers, and minimal voids, offers ability dynamically adjust matrix materials control volume fractions during printing. While previous studies have focused on proof‐of‐concept demonstrations, this study investigates mechanical properties printable curvatures along nonlinear pathways, both which are essential advancing 3D technologies fiber‐reinforced polymers (CFRPs). Uniaxial tensile tests conducted assess modulus, strength, failure mechanisms, different achieved varying thicknesses filament spacing. To evaluate printability, circular filaments printed at various speeds determine maximum curvature as function fraction. results enable fibers intricate patterns featuring optimized pathways. Overall, deepens understanding process valuable insights further optimizing parameters material selection. These findings can guide its future developments broader applications in aerospace, automotive, construction, etc.
