Abstract

Abstract A resinous hardener system comprising the reaction product of diamino diphenylsulfone compounds and diglycidyl ethers of polyhydric phenols. The hardener system can be incorporated into a variety of epoxy resins for use as improved prepreg or laminating resins, as resin molded castings, and the like.
