There is provided a curable composition comprising (A) a cyclic olefin; (B) a metathesis catalyst for polymerizing the cyclic olefin; (C) 0.1-30 wt. % of a compound comprising at least one vinyl group; and (D) 0.1-10 wt. % of a curing agent for compound (C), wherein the wt. % are relative to the total weight of the composition. The composition provides a desirable combination of workability, toughness and heat resistance. Also provided is a molded article comprising the composition and reinforcing fibers, and a method of manufacturing the same.

Curable composition and molded article comprising the composition

The present invention relates to sizing compositions, to glass fibers at least partially coated with such sizing compositions, to a variety of fiber glass products at least partially coated with such sizing compositions, and to composites formed from cycloolefins and reinforced with glass fibers at least partially coated with sizing compositions of the present invention. In one non-limiting embodiment, a sizing composition for glass fibers comprises a film-former comprising a polymer, wherein the repeating unit of the polymer comprises at least four carbon atoms and at least one carbon-carbon double bond, and a silane. A sizing composition for glass fibers, in another non-limiting embodiment, comprises a film-former comprising a polymer, wherein the repeating unit of the polymer comprises four to six carbon atoms and one carbon-carbon double bond, in an amount between about 60 and about 90 weight percent on a total solids basis, and a silane comprising a terminal vinyl group in an amount between about 5 and about 25 weight percent on a total solids basis.

Glass fiber sizing compositions, sized glass fibers, and polyolefin composites

The present invention relates to sizing compositions, glass fibers at least partially coated with sizing compositions, and glass fiber reinforced composite materials. In one embodiment, a sizing composition comprises at least one maleic anhydride copolymer, at least one coupling agent, and a reaction product of an alkoxylated amine and a polycarboxylic acid, which is further reacted with an epoxy compound.

Sizing compositions and glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites

The present invention provides sizing compositions and methods of using the same for glass fibers used in reinforced polymeric composites produced by reactive processing techniques.

Fiber reinforced polymeric composites and methods of making the same

The present invention is directed to sizing compositions for glass fibers and glass fiber reinforced thermoplastic resins. The sizing composition comprises a maleic anhydride copolymer. Thermoplastic polyamide resin articles reinforced with glass fibers at least partially coated with a residue of the sizing composition can demonstrate a surprising improvement in strength of the reinforced polyamide resin when lubricated with a fatty acid metal salt and in the hydrolysis resistance when exposed to boiling water/ethylene glycol medium.
