    Abstract: A one-component thermosetting epoxy resin composition, including a) at least one epoxy resin A having on average more than one epoxide group per molecule; b) at least one latent hardener for epoxy resins; c) at least one physical or chemical blowing agent BA; d) 3-15 wt.-% of at least one carboxyl group containing acrylonitrile/butadiene rubber ABR1 with a Mooney Viscosity of 15-30 MU (Mooney units), based on the total amount of epoxy resin A; and e) 3-15 wt.-% of at least one carboxyl group containing acrylonitrile/butadiene rubber ABR2 with a Mooney Viscosity of 35-50 MU (Mooney units), based on the total amount of epoxy resin A. The ratio of ABR1 to ABR2 is from 0.5-2.0. The epoxy resin adhesive is notable for the improved storage stability.

    Abstract: A thermally expandable composition, including at least one epoxy-functional polymer, at least one thermoplastic polymer, at least one chemical blowing agent, and at least one activator, wherein the epoxy-functional polymer is present in the composition before expansion with an amount of between 30 and 75 wt.-%, based on the total composition, and the epoxy-functional polymer includes at least 300 mmol epoxy groups per kg polymer, and wherein the chemical blowing agent is able to form at least one reaction product with at least two amino groups upon thermal decomposition, and the chemical blowing agent is in the composition before expansion with an amount of between 5 and 30 wt.-%, based on the total composition.
