Abstract
The present invention relates to novel compositions comprising epoxy resins and phosphate ceramic compositions derived from wollastonite, a metal oxide, and phosphoric acid. In addition to providing a curing component for the inorganic constituents of the composition, the phosphoric acid also serves as an acid catalyst for the epoxy resin. As a result, a system is obtained which can be highly filled with inert material, yet which provides superior resistance to traffic and other wear conditions. In one preferred embodiment, the above composition comprises latent curing additives which provide an accelerated cure to the system.
