Patent number: 4943610Abstract: A non-shrinking, strain-free, dimensionally-stable modified epoxy resin is disclosed for use in the fabrication of composite, structural laminates. The uniqueness of product preparation is that the optimum amount of the lactone compound can be copolymerized with the epoxy resin since equimolar amounts of each monomer do not necessarily need to be copolymerized to achieve the optimum shrink resistance. By varying the ratio of shrink-resistant monomer and epoxy in a resin blend, a means is available for controlling the shrinkage, and, in this manner, it would be possible to produce a laminate with a matrix so tailored so that reinforcing fibers would not undergo breakage, or pull out of the matrix on being stressed. The modified epoxy resin is the reaction product produced from reacting a compound selected from 6-hexanolactone and 5-norbornene-2,2-dimethanol with the diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A and cured with the curing agent hexahydrophthalic acid.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 1987Date of Patent: July 24, 1990Inventor: David C.

Patent number: 4601944Abstract: Disclosed is a composition that includes a liquid prepolymer that is the reaction product of a monoanhydride, a cycloaliphatic epoxy, and an alcohol. Also included in the composition is a maleated polybutadiene that is a reaction product of butadiene, maleic anhydride, and an oxygen scavenger. The composition also includes a tertiary amine accelerator, a free-radical initiator, and a solvent. A prepreg is prepared from the composition by immersing a porous substrate into the composition, drying and curing to the B-stage. A laminate is prepared by forming a stack of prepregs and heating under pressure to the C-stage.Type: GrantFiled: June 5, 1985Date of Patent: July 22, 1986Assignee: Westinghouse Electric Corp.Inventor: Melvin P. Zussman

Patent number: 4578452Abstract: This application relates to methods for the manufacture of leakage current-proof epoxy-resin molded materials from epoxy resin mixture based on di- or polycarboxylic-acid glycidyl esters, di- or polyfunctional cycloaliphatic olefinic epoxides and dicarboxylic-acid anhydrides, carried out in such a manner that molded materials with good mechanical properties are obtained also for parts of large volume. For this purpose, the invention provides that, by means of the experimentally determined time necessary to reach the maximum temperature during the cross-linking of the epoxy resin mixture under quasi adiabatic conditions, the rate of cross-linking of the epoxy resin mixture is adjusted, by the addition of a diol or polyol, to at least as long as the time necessary to reach the maximum temperature during cross-linking of the glycidyl ester/dicarboxylic acid anhydride components.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 1984Date of Patent: March 25, 1986Assignee: Siemens AktiengesellschaftInventors: Wolfgang Kleeberg, Klaus-Robert Hauschildt, Heinz Hacker, Klaus Kretzschmar

Patent number: 4560788Abstract: A process for producing an oligoester which comprises:(a) the step of reacting isophthalic acid and propylene oxide in a reaction medium in the presence of a specific catalyst comprising a tetraalkyl ammonium compound to prepare an oligoester, and(b) the step of removing volatile components from the resulting oligoester by heating the oligoester at a temperature of 180.degree.-280.degree. C. is disclosed. The oligoester is used as an intermediate for preparing unsaturated polyesters.Type: GrantFiled: August 8, 1983Date of Patent: December 24, 1985Assignee: Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Inc.Inventors: Akira Miyamoto, Senzo Shimizu, Masayoshi Okamura, Hiroka Tanisake, Yasumitsu Higuchi, Toshio Hidaka, Koji Yamamoto, Toshiyuki Abe

Patent number: RE32029Abstract: A copolyester resin having modified termini is disclosed, as well as the method for making and using that compound in subsequent reactions with epoxide curing compounds. The polymerization of the copolyester resin may include a compounding preparation stage for modifying the termini of the copolyester resin by reacting those end groups with an aromatic acid to alter the activation energy necessary to cure the modified copolyester resin with the epoxide compound upon mixing and heating of that mixture in a powder coating upon a substrate. The modified copolyester resin improves impact strength and leveling properties between 300.degree. and 450.degree. F., which is desirable for protection of the underlying substrate.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1984Date of Patent: November 12, 1985Assignee: The Goodyear Tire & Rubber CompanyInventors: Patrick J. Pesata, Jr., Harlan W. Frerking, Jr., Nelson C. Bletso
