Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a flat article comprising a material that contains the products of several reactions. The method comprises the following steps: carrying out a pre-cross-linking of a mixture comprising an epoxydation product of a carboxylic acid ester using at least one cross-linking agent in order to form a mouldable material; moulding the mouldable material in the shape of a flat article; and curing the moulded material in order to produce a flat article, wherein the pre-cross-linking reaction is separate from the curing reaction. This invention also relates to a mouldable material that can be stored and to a flat article that can be obtained from the same.
