ABSTRACT:
The present invention describes materials and methods for forming radiation curable polymer network materials, including coatings, pre-pregs and fiber-reinforced composites. The polymer network materials of the present invention exhibit much lower shrinkage after radiation curing than previous materials and methods, improving the adhesion associated with coatings and pre-pregs, and part fit-up when used to make composite articles.
The present invention also describes an improved method for bonding together articles made by the materials and method of the invention, which results in high-strength bonds between articles.
