Thermoplastic polymer composition having thermosetting processing characteristics.

摘要

The present invention relates to a new polymer composition having the processing characteristics of a thermosetting polymer along with an improved balance of properties including improved modulus/glass transition temperature/toughness balance. These new polymer compositions are prepared by reacting certain diphenolic compounds with certain diepoxide compounds to form linear units which are lightly crosslinked through the resulting secondary hydroxyl groups. Also disclosed and claimed are processes for preparing such compositions, cured compositions and end-use applications.
