AbstractRubber‐modified epoxies (RME) filled with different levels of barium titanate (BaTiO3) have been characterized by using DSC, TGA, and TMA. The presence of the filler does not affect the glass transition temperature or the activation energy of pyrolysis; however, it does change other thermal properties. The dielectric constant increases markedly, but the dissipation factor remains fairly constant with increasing BaTiO3loading. The polymers, in MEK, exhibit slightly different degrees of swelling and their sol fractions vary. Mechanical properties, such as stress‐strain relation, friction, abrasion, scratch hardness, and scrape adhesion of the polymers, will be descri
