Process for the manufacture of fibre-reinforced composites

A process for the production of a fibre-reinforced composite, which comprises introducing a fabric into the lower part of an open two-part mould, closing the mould and injecting into the mould under pressure and curing a reactive resin mixture comprising

• (a) a Diels-Alder adduct of cyclopentadiene and
• (b) a compound of the formula I
• (R.sub.1 R.sub.2 R.sub.3 P).sub.x L.sub.y Ru.sup.2+ Z.sub.1.sup.- Z.sub.2.sup.- (I),
• in which R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 independently of one another are phenyl, tolyl or cyclohexyl,
• L is benzene which is unsubstituted or substituted by 1 to 3 C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl, thiophene, benzonitrile, acetonitrile, nitrogen (N.sub.2), an unsubstituted or partly or completely fluorinated C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alcohol, CO, H.sub.2 O or NH.sub.3,
• Z.sub.1.sup.- and Z.sub.2.sup.- independently of one another are H.sup.-, Cl.sup.-, Br.sup.-, BF.sub.4.sup.-, PF.sub.6.sup.-, SbF.sub.6.sup.-, AsF.sub.6.sup.-, CF.sub.3 SO.sub.3.sup.-, C.sub.6 H.sub.5 --SO.sub.3.sup.-, p-toluenesulfonate (tosylate), 3,5-dimethylphenylsulfonate, 2,4,6-trimethylphenylsulfonate, 4-trifluoromethylphenylsulfonate or cyclopentadienyl,
• x is a number from 1 to 3 and y is a number from 0 to 3, where 2.ltoreq.x+y.ltoreq.4.
