The acetylacetonates of nickel(II) and copper(II) serve as accelerators for the anhydridecurable epoxy resin system. An appreciable lowering in the cure gel time and a substantial increase in the rate of curing is observed with enhanced concentrations of the metal chelates. Cure kinetic studies and cure schedules have been followed using a differential scanning calorimeter. The thermal and electrical insulation characteristics of the cured epoxy system are little affected by the variation of temperature, voltage, and aging under UV radiation. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
