Method for the production of a fiber-reinforced product based on epoxy resin

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing a fiber-reinforced product based on epoxy resin. In order to provide a product manufactured in resin transfer molding (RTM), which has excellent impact strength without further mechanical or thermal characteristics being affected, a method is proposed comprising the following steps: if necessary, preforming of the fibrous material (2), placing the fibrous material (2) into a mold (1), if necessary, coated with parting means, and closing of the mold (1), wherein the molding of the fibrous material (2) takes place, injecting a mixture (4) which, relative to 100 pbw of the following components of the mixture, comprises i) 50 to 70 pbw of an epoxy resin, ii) 25 to 50 pbw of an aromatic diamine, and iii) 2 to 25 pbw of cross-linkable elastomer particles based on polyorganosiloxanes with an average particle diameter of 1·10−8 m to 5·10−6 m and an average molecular weight of 1,000 to 100,000, with substantially only the surface of the elastomer particles having been modified with reactive groups, which are capable of entering into a chemical reaction with an epoxy resin, as well as includes iv) 0.05 to 2 pbw, if necessary, of further conventional additive substances, under conventional pressure, cross-linking of the mixture (4) with the mold, if necessary, being heated and releasing of the structural part (5).
