Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a resin binder composition comprising, in combination, a resole resin and a metal salt curing accelerator providing a binder composition that has an improved cure rate in electrical grade laminates without adversely affecting electrical properties. The binder composition provides low viscosity for impregnation and accelerated curing rates for advancing the impregnated substrate prior to laminating and final curing.
