Abstract

Abstract A curable composition consisting of A. 100 parts by weight of an epoxy resin, B. from 4 to 100 parts by weight of a conventional curing agent for epoxy resins, and C. from 0.1 to 5 parts by weight of an N-acylimidazole which possesses an aromatic acyl component which is substituted at the two positions ortho to the carbonyl group can be used to produce moldings, coatings, finishes, adhesives and composite fiber materials.
