Epoxy compound, composition, cured product and laminate

An epoxy compound A prepared by:

• reacting a hydroxy compound B with an epihalohydrin (a3);
• wherein the hydroxy compound B is formed by reacting a diglycidyl ether (a1) of an aliphatic dihydroxy compound and an aromatic hydroxy compound (a2) at a molar ratio (a1)/(a2) in the range of 1/1.01 to 1/5.0;
• wherein the aliphatic dihydroxy compound is represented by the following structure:
• where R1 and R2 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having 1 or 2 carbon atoms, and n is an integer of 11 to 16;
• wherein the aromatic hydroxy compound (a2) is represented by the following structure:
• HO—Ar—OH
• where Ar is an unsubstituted or substituted aromatic structure;
• and
• wherein the hydroxy compound B is represented by the following structure:
• where R6 and R7 each represent a hydroxyl group, R10 and R11 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and m is an average value of repetition and is 0.5 to 10.
