AI Technical Summary
Existing epoxy resin compositions require excessive amounts of expensive compounds with dynamic covalent bonding sites to achieve sufficient fluidity, which impair the heat resistance and mechanical properties of the cured product, and methods to reuse cured products are inefficient.
An epoxy resin composition using a curing agent with dynamic covalent bonding moieties in an amount equal to or less than the theoretical equivalent, combined with a specific ratio of active hydrogen, allowing for excellent remoldability and self-repairability in the cured product.
The composition achieves remoldability and self-repairability in the cured product, maintaining high mechanical properties and heat resistance, and enables methods for repairing, remolding, decomposing, and recovering reinforcing fibers from fiber-reinforced composite materials.
