Zusammenfassung: | A curable resin or curing agent therefor, which comprises an adjustable structural unit having a stable chain-like arrangement which is adjustable to a stable ring-like arrangement, wherein the ring-like arrangement comprises the constituents of the chain-like arrangement with two terminal constituents exhibiting an attractive chemical interaction, and is adjustable back from the ring-like arrangement to the chain-like arrangement by separation of the two terminal constituents. Preferred curing agents are of the form of curing agents A-F and may be used in the curing of epoxy resins. Suitable epoxy resins are may be formed from the diglycidyl ethers of Bisphenols A and F, the triglycidyl derivative of m-aminophenol and TGDDM (N,N,N',N'-tetraglycidyl-4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane). Prepregs (pre-impregnated composite fibres) comprising a fibre-structure impregnated with the curable resin are also outlined. |
