Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This invention relates to an additive for a thermoset resin matrix having a core and a reactive cross-linked thermoset coating. The reactive cross-linked thermoset coating is the reaction product of a thermoset resin and a curative in a dispersant.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An additive for a thermoset resin matrix, said additive having a core and a cross-linked thermoset coating, wherein the cross-linked thermoset coating is the reaction product of an epoxy thermoset resin and an amine curative which precipitate out of solution from a dispersant onto the surface of the core and wherein said cross-linked thermoset coating comprises reactive amine groups derived from the amine curative, said reactive groups being disposed on the surface of said cross-linked thermoset cross-linked thermosetting coating, said core comprising a veil, and wherein the dispersant is bound to surface of the crosslinked thermoset coating at a concentration of no greater than 0.001 weight percent based on the weight of the additive. 2. The additive according to claim 1 wherein the core is a thermoplastic core. 3. The additive according to claim 2 wherein said thermoplastic comprises a polyamide. 4. The additive according to claim 1 wherein the thermoset resin matrix comprises an epoxy resin or a bismaleimide resin.
