Abstract The invention relates to a method for the manufacture of transparent casting resins. According to the invention, a liquid acid anhydride (b) is admixed to a premixture (a), which is liquid at room temperture, of zinc octoate, a low-molecular weight acid ester and, optionally, an organic phosphite, and this mixture of (a) and (b) is added, preferably at temperatures </=50 DEG C., to liquid aromatic diglycidyl ethers. Diphenyldecyl phosphite is particularly well suited as an organic phosphite. The casting resins obtained are transparent and find use particularly for casting-in and encapsulating opto-electronic components such as light-emitting diodes (and diode displays), photo diodes and photo transistors.
A method for the manufacture of transparent casting resins prepared from aromatic diglycidyl ethers, carboxylic acid anhydrides, metal salts of carboxylic acids and auxiliary agents and additives, comprising forming an admixture of (a) a premixture comprising zinc octoate and a low-molecular weight acid ester, which premixture is liquid at room temperature, and (b) a liquid acid anhydride, and adding said admixture to a liquid aromatic diglycidyl ether.
