Abstract
Disclosed herein is an epoxy resin compositions comprising an epoxy component and a curing agent component, wherein the curing agent component is at least an aminoalkylimidazole curing agent, and wherein the epoxy component and the curing agent component react together at a temperature of about 100° C. to about 130° C. to form a substantially cured reaction product in about 10 minutes or less. Further disclosed are composite products formed from such epoxy resin compositions.
Claims14
An epoxy resin composition comprising:
- about 70 wt % to about 95 wt % by weight of the composition of an epoxy component;
- and
- a curing component comprising about 5 wt % to about 30 wt % by weight of the composition, wherein the curing component is at least an aminoalkylimidazole curing agent;
- wherein the epoxy component and the curing component react together at a temperature of about 100° C. to about 130° C. to form a substantially cured reaction product in about 10 minutes or less.
A composite product comprising a reaction product of an epoxy resin composition, the epoxy resin composition comprising:
- about 70 wt % to about 95 wt % by weight of the composition of an epoxy component;
- and
- a curing component comprising about 5 wt % to about 30 wt % by weight of the composition of an aminoalkylimidazole curing agent;
- wherein the epoxy component and the aminoalkylimidazole curing agent react together at a temperature of about 100° C. to about 130° C. to form a substantially cured reaction product in about 10 minutes or less.
