Abstract: A condensation product of at least one (hydroxymethyl)phenol and at least one polyoxyalkylene diamine and a process for the preparation thereof and the use thereof in the curing of epoxy resin systems are described.

Abstract: Hot-curing epoxy resin compositions are disclosed which firstly are solid in a hardened state at room temperature and secondly form an adhesion-free surface and are impact-resistant and can have high glass transition temperatures, above, for example, 110° C. An exemplary hot-curing epoxy resin composition can form separate phases on hardening, a continuous phase being formed by epoxy resins. If the compositions include a blowing agent, they can have excellent suitability for production of foams, such as structural foams.
