Abstract
The present invention relates to a curable thermosetting resin composition having enhanced fracture toughness as a results of the incorporation of reactive thermoplastic oligomers therein. More specifically, the present invention relates to a composition comprising a thermoset resin which contains fluorine and containing at least one fluorine containing thermoplastic homopolymer component which is soluble in the thermoset. Said thermoplastic polymer undergoes an in-situ phase separation process during cure to form a microphase separated multiphase thermoset material.
