A curable resin composition which provides a cured product excellent in impact resistance and flexural modulus and has a low viscosity comprising a component (A), a component (B) and a component (C). The component (A) is a compound represented by formula (1), wherein in formula (1), R is hydrogen or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and the hydrocarbon group optionally has a substituent, wherein the component (B) is a compound having 3 or more to 15 or less of oxyethylene groups or oxypropylene groups and two or more radically polymerizable groups per molecule, and wherein the component (C) is a radical polymerization initiator.

Photocurable resin composition

A cured product contains a dispersant, inorganic particles, and a resin that is a product of polymerization or copolymerization of a curable resin. The dispersant contains a compound represented by a formula R&#x2014;X, wherein R represents a group having an acryloyloxy group or a methacryloyloxy group at an end of the molecule thereof, and X represents a carboxy group. The dispersant content is 10 parts by volume to 20 parts by volume relative to 100 parts by volume of the cured product. The curable resin contains at least one monomer having an N number of polymerizable reactive group, wherein N represents an integer of 2 or more. The proportion of the at least one monomer is 25 parts by volume to 76 parts by volume relative to 100 parts by volume of the cured product.
