  • Cure inhibited epoxy resin compositions and laminates prepared from the compositions
    Patent number: 5721323
    Abstract: A class of compounds which inhibits the reaction of a polyepoxide with a curing agent at low temperatures including an epoxy resin composition containinga) a polyepoxide;b) an amine or amide curing agent for the polyepoxide;c) at least about 15 meq (per equivalent of polyepoxide) of a catalyst for the reaction of the polyepoxide with the curing agent; andd) a cure inhibitor selected such that:(1) at about 171.degree. C. the composition has a gel time that is at least about 50 percent longer than a similar composition without the inhibitor, and(2) at about 175.degree. C. and higher the composition cures in no more than about 50 minutessuch that the composition cures rapidly with high cross-link density because it has a high catalyst loading, while the inhibitor lengthens the gel time to permit laminating and other processing.
