Abstract

Abstract According to this invention the individual components in the multi-component system are accommodated in a particular ratio in such a way that all substances which are not stable to atmospheric air and humidity and all substances which are not stable mechanically and any liquid substances are taken up or surrounded by a composition which is inert to air and humidity and is mechanically sufficiently stable. For example in a drageelike arrangement the multi-component thermosetting resin system consists of a moulding, possessing at least one closed cavity, of at least one solid component (A) of this system and a filing to this cavity, comprising at least one solid or liquid reaction partner (B) of the component (A) for thermosetting crosslinking.
