Abstract
An amine reacted acrylated epoxy resin blend that is particularly suitable for impregnating a fiber material and at least initial curing by exposure to ionizing radiation. These epoxy resins are basically produced by combining epoxy resins, including esterified epoxy resins, with stoichiometric quantities of aliphatic or cyclo aliphatic polyamines. The resins can be used to impregnate fibers which are exposed to ionizing radiation such as an electron beam or ultraviolet light and immediately formed into a structure, such as by filament winding. A short exposure to the ionizing radiation produces a stress-free, self supporting structure that can be fully cured through simple heating without elaborate tooling, vacuum bagging, autoclaves or the like.
