| Summary: | A curable flame retardant epoxy resin composition including (a) at least one flame retardant epoxy resin; (b) at least one amphiphilic block copolymer; and (c) a curing agent. Such components are present in the curable composition in the appropriate amounts and ratios such that, upon curing, the block copolymer self-assembles into a nano structure morphology, such as a worm-like micelle morphology. The resulting cured product made from the composition of the present invention has a remarkably increased high fracture resistance; and allows the use of flame retardant epoxies in applications where fracture resistance is an issue. |
