CURABLE EPOXY RESIN COMPOSITIONS AND COMPOSITES MADE THEREOF

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a curable epoxy resin composite composition including a reinforcing material and an epoxy resin composition, and a process for preparing a composite from such a composition.SOLUTION: A combination of at least one alkanolamine and at least one styrenated phenol is present in the epoxy resin composition in a sufficient amount to increase the rate of reaction of the at least one epoxy resin and the at least one alkanolamine curing agent while maintaining the thermal and mechanical properties of the composite upon curing of the epoxy resin composition.
