1. An epoxy resin composition resulting from the dehydrohalogenation of the reaction product of(A) an epoxy alkyl halide;
- with(B) an acid catalyzed product resulting from reacting(1) at least one aromatic hydroxyl-containing compound having from one to two aromatic rings and at least one ortho or para position with respect to a hydroxyl group available for ring alkylation;
with(2) at least one unsaturated hydrocarbon selected from(a) monounsaturated or diunsaturated hydrocarbons having from 4 to 6 carbon atoms or mixture thereof;

Abstract
Epoxy resins are prepared by dehydrohalogenating the reaction product of an epoxy alkyl halide such as epichlorohydrin with the reaction product of an aromatic hydroxyl-containing compound such as phenol with an unsaturated hydrocarbon such as piperylene or isoprene or mixtures of dicyclopentadiene with other dimers or oligomers derived from C3 -C6 unsaturated hydrocarbons.
