==EPOXY COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING POLYROTAXANE ADDITIVES HAVING IMPROVED IMPACT STRENGTH - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17550638 titled 'EPOXY COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING POLYROTAXANE ADDITIVES HAVING IMPROVED IMPACT STRENGTH

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract of the patent application describes epoxy compositions that contain a sliding-ring polymer additive and a thermally-curable epoxy resin. These compositions have improved flexural toughness and impact resistance compared to compositions without the additive. The patent application also mentions 3D-printed epoxy compositions with the same additive and resin.

* Epoxy compositions contain a sliding-ring polymer additive and a thermally-curable epoxy resin.
* The compositions show increased flexural toughness and impact resistance compared to compositions without the additive.
* The patent application also covers 3D-printed epoxy compositions with the same additive and resin.

== Potential Applications ==
* Manufacturing of high-strength epoxy-based materials
* Production of impact-resistant coatings and adhesives
* 3D printing of epoxy-based objects with improved mechanical properties

== Problems Solved ==
* Lack of toughness and impact resistance in traditional epoxy compositions
* Limited options for producing high-strength epoxy materials
* Challenges in 3D printing epoxy-based objects with desired mechanical properties

== Benefits ==
* Improved flexural toughness and impact resistance in epoxy compositions
* Enhanced mechanical properties in 3D-printed epoxy objects
* Expanded range of applications for epoxy-based materials


==Original Abstract Submitted==

This document relates to epoxy compositions containing a sliding-ring polymer (polyrotaxane) additive and a thermally-curable epoxy resin. The epoxy compositions exhibit increased flexural toughness and impact resistance as compared to the same epoxy composition that does not contain the additive. This document also relates to 3D-printed epoxy compositions containing a sliding-ring polymer (polyrotaxane) additive and a thermally-curable epoxy resin.
