Abstract

Abstract An intermediate for a composite material is described, comprising a reinforcing material impregnated with a resin composition which comprises: (A) 100 parts by weight of a mixture of (I) a polyfunctional maleimide and (II) a polyfunctional cyanate or an oligomer thereof, or a preliminary reaction product of (I) and (II); (B) from 5 to 100 parts by weight of an epoxy compound; and (C) from 5 to 50 parts by weight of a polyester compound.
