Abstract:
An epoxy resin which is liquid in an ordinary state is disclosed, which is obtained by reacting a bisphenolic oligocarbonate having phenolic hydroxy terminal groups with an epihalohydrin, and dehydrohalogenating the product. This resin can form tough cured products with good bending strength and bending elastic modulus. A process for producing epoxy foam is also disclosed, which comprises crosslinking a polyepoxy compound with a carbonate oligomer having phenolic hydroxy terminal groups with foaming at the same time. The obtained foam has high flexibility against compression, bending and deflection.
