  • Thermoset Resin Composite Materials Comprising Inter-Laminar Toughening Particles
    Publication number: 20140135443
    Abstract: A resin system containing: (i) a thermosetting resin precursor component comprising one or more multi-functional epoxy resin precursor(s) having a functionality of at least three, preferably wherein said precursor(s) are selected from a tri-functional epoxy resin precursor and/or a tetra-functional epoxy resin precursor; (ii) a thermoplastic polyamide particle component wherein the polyamide particles have a melting temperature TPA; and (iii) one or more curing agent(s), wherein the resin precursor component, the thermoplastic particle and the curing agent(s) are selected such that gelation of the epoxy matrix during the cure cycle of the resin system occurs at a gelation temperature TGEL which is at or below TPA.
