Abstract
Abstract The use of organophosphines, organophosphonium salts or organophosphine complexes as cure catalysts in the cure of maleimide resin systems produces products having excellent physical properties and improved gel times. These systems are especially useful in the production of advanced structural composites.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
41 words
A heat curable maleimide resin system comprising (a) a maleimide resin and (b) an amount of a catalyst selected from the group consisting of organophosphines, organophosphonium salts, or complexes thereof effective to accelerate the elevated temperature cure of said resin system.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
41 words
A heat curable maleimide resin system comprising (a) a maleimide resin and (b) an amount of a catalyst selected from the group consisting of organophosphines, organophosphonium salts, or complexes thereof effective to accelerate the elevated temperature cure of said resin system.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
30 words
The resin system of claim 1 wherein said catalyst is present in an amount of from 0.01 percent to about 5.0 percent by weight relative to the total resin system.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
