| abstract |
The present invention has its object to provide a curable composition, although having low viscosity itself, which gives a cured product, when being cured, which has wide range of elasticity, from hard to soft, which is excellent in weather resistance and heat resistance, and the hardness and brittleness (characteristic to epoxy resins) of which have been improved to have rubber elasticity, and which has high adhesion strength and is transparent. The curable composition of the present invention comprises a vinyl polymer containing at least one crosslinkable silyl group on average and an epoxy resin. When being used for adhering or sealing a transparent material such as glass, polycarbonates, and acrylic resins, the curable composition of the invention is usable for treatment with sufficiently retaining the transparency, which is an aesthetic characteristic. |
