Storable, solid mixture for the preparation of plastics which are based on epoxide resin and are stable to hydrolysis, the use of this mixture for the preparation of such plastics and plastics obtained in this way

A storable, solid mixture for the preparation of a plastic which is based on epoxide resin and is stable to hydrolysis, which comprises (a) a long-chain, linear epoxide resin, which is free from ester groups, is solid at room temperature and has an epoxide equivalent weight of >

• 700;
• (b) a compound which is free from ester groups, contains cyclic structures and 2 or 3 epoxide groups in the molecule and has an epoxide equivalent weight of 100 to 400, the components (a) and (b) being present in a ratio such that, per 1 total epoxide equivalent, 0.05 to 0.3 equivalent originates from (a) and 0.7 to 0.95 equivalent originates from (b);
• (c) the condensation product of 3 mols of phenol and 1 mol of acrolein, in an amount such that there are 0.5 to 1.1 equivalents of the phenolic hydroxy compound per epoxide equivalent with 0 to 70 equivalent % of said product being replaced by a phenolic bis-hydroxy compound;
• and (d) a curing accelerator.
