This curable composition can easily reinforce shaped objects and the reinforced shaped objects have good color developability and excellent texture. The curable composition includes a 2-cyanoacrylic acid ester and a surface conditioner, in which the c content of the surface conditioner is 0.001-10 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the 2-cyanoacrylic acid ester, and the surface tension of the composition is 28 mN/m or less at 25&#xb0; C. Preferred surface conditioners are silicone-based and fluorinated surface conditioners. Reinforced shaped objects and a method for reinforcing shaped objects using the curable composition are also provided.

Curable composition and method for reinforcing shaped structure with use of same

There is provided a one-pack type room-temperature-curable 2-cyanoacrylate based composition having magnetism. The 2-cyanoacrylate based composition having magnetism is characterized by containing (a) a 2-cyanoacrylic acid ester and (b) a magnetic powder dispersible in the 2-cyanoacrylic acid ester, wherein the content of the magnetic powder (b) is 5 to 500 parts by weight relative to 100 parts by weight of the 2-cyanoacrylic acid ester (a). The magnetic powder (b) is preferably a stainless steel.

2-cyanoacrylate composition having magnetism

Provided is a method for easily reinforcing a three-dimensional shaped object. The method for reinforcing a three-dimensional shaped object comprises reinforcing the three-dimensional shaped object using an impregnating composition containing a 2-cyanoacrylic acid ester having a specific structure, said impregnating composition having a viscosity at 25&#xb0; C. in a range of from 1 to 1000 mPa&#xb7;s, and said impregnating composition having a Shore hardness D in a range of from 20 to 75 when being hardened. Preferably, the three-dimensional shaped object is formed of an inorganic powder.
