The glass transition temperature <strong>of</strong> the materials was studied by us<strong>in</strong>g Differential<br />

scann<strong>in</strong>g calorimetry. TA Qseries equipment was used. The test was carried out with a heat<strong>in</strong>g<br />

rate <strong>of</strong> 20°C/m<strong>in</strong> from 30°C to 200°C <strong>in</strong> the nitrogen atmosphere. The glass transition temperature
