Abstract

Abstract An epoxy resin composition which comprises an epoxy resin derived from an ester of an alkadienealcohol; an epoxy resin prepared by reacting an epichlorohydrin and a bisphenol and an acid anhydride curing agent. The cured product has very high mechanical strength and cracking resistance and is useful as an electrical insulating material.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 89 words
An epoxy resin composition which comprises: A. an epoxy resin having a number average molecular weight of 600-2000 and having at least two epoxy groups per molecule prepared by condensing a bisphenol and an epichlorohydrin; B. an epoxy resin derived from an ester of an alkadienealcohol and an alicyclic or aliphatic dicarboxylic acid; and C. an acid anhydride curing agent selected from the group consisting of maleic anhydrides and phthalic anhydrides wherein the ratio of epoxy resin (A) to epoxy resin (B) is 80:20 to 20:80 by weight parts.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 89 words
An epoxy resin composition which comprises: A. an epoxy resin having a number average molecular weight of 600-2000 and having at least two epoxy groups per molecule prepared by condensing a bisphenol and an epichlorohydrin; B. an epoxy resin derived from an ester of an alkadienealcohol and an alicyclic or aliphatic dicarboxylic acid; and C. an acid anhydride curing agent selected from the group consisting of maleic anhydrides and phthalic anhydrides wherein the ratio of epoxy resin (A) to epoxy resin (B) is 80:20 to 20:80 by weight parts.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
The epoxy resin composition of claim 1, wherein 0.7-1.2 equivalent of said acid anhydride curing agent per equivalent of epoxy group in the total epoxy resins is added.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 35 words
The epoxy resin composition of claim 1, wherein said epoxy resin (B) has at least two epoxy groups and is prepaared by the epoxidation of an ester of an alkadienealcohol and an alicyclic dicarboxylic acid.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 23 words
The epoxy resin composition of claim 1, wherein said acid anhydride curing agent is hexahydrophthalic anhydride, 3,6-endomethylenetetrahydrophthalic anhydride, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride or methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 95 words
The epoxy resin composition of claim 1, wherein the epoxy resin condensate of a bisphenol and epichlorohydrin has the formula ##SPC3## wherein n is an integer of at least 1; and the epoxy resin is derived from an ester of an alkadienealcohol having the formula ##STR2## wherein R represents a moiety selected from the group consisting of ##SPC4## and the acid anhydride curing agent is selected from the group consisting of succinic anhydride, dodecenyl succinic anhydride, maleic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, hexahydrophthalic anhydride, methyl tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, methyl hexahydrophthalic anhydride, 3,6-endomethylenetetrahydrophthalic anhydride, methyl-3,6-endomethylenetetrahydrophthalic anhydride and mixtures thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 19 words
A cured epoxy resin product which is prepared by curing the epoxy resin composition of claim 1 by heating.
