Novolak cyanate-based prepolymer compositions

Abstract

Described are prepolymer compositions on the basis of novolak cyanates of the general formula wherein n is a number from 0 to 20 and the radicals R are identical or different and represent hydrogen or methyl. The compositions contain: 30 to 90 parts by weight of a prepolymer from novolak cyanates (I) wherein R=hydrogen (Ia) and 10 to 70 parts by weight of novolak cyanates (I) wherein R=methyl (Ib), and optionally highly disperse silicon dioxides and/or particulate or fibrous fillers. The inventive compositions are solid at normal temperature and can be ground to flowable powders. They have excellent stability when stored and are easy to process and especially suitable for use as the resin component in base materials for printed circuits on resin-bound abrasive products.
