FIELD: production of composite materials.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a composition of epoxy resin intended for producing a composite material, a prepreg and a composite material reinforced with carbon fiber, which can be used in sports, aeronautical, space and various industrial fields. Epoxy resin composition contains components [A], [B], [C] and [D]. Component [A] is an aromatic epoxy resin containing two or more epoxy-functionalities. Component [B] is an amine curing agent of diaminodiphenyl sulphone. Component [D] is a cycloaliphatic epoxy resin of formula (I):
(I),
wherein Y is a single bond or a divalent moiety selected from a group comprising O, C(CH3)2, CH2, an oxirane ring and having molecular weight less than 45 g/mol. Component [C] is a latent acid catalyst—an onium salt of formula (II):
(II).
Prepreg contains carbon fibers impregnated with said composition. Prepreg hardens the composite material reinforced with carbon fiber and contains the cured product.
EFFECT: invention enables to obtain a cured material obtained as a result of heating, which is characterized by high level of heat resistance and high strength properties.
