Curable compositions that undergo reaction induced phase separation of domains in cured matrix and provide beneficial physical and chemical properties and methods of use of such compositions. Curable compositions that undergo reaction induced phase separation of domains in cured matrix in response to a first set of curing conditions and the domains undergo a second reaction in response to a second set of curing conditions to improve the physical properties of the domains and the cured composition, such as improvements in glass transition temperature and thermal degradation.
