The synergic effect of acrylate liquid rubber with pendant epoxy group and bisphenol A on the toughness of epoxy resins was presented in this paper. The addition of bisphenol A enhances the impact strength and elongation at break of epoxy resin and actually increases the ductibility of epoxy resin matrix. Much higher toughness efficiency can be achieved for the ALR modified epoxy resins by the incorporation of bisphenol A at the same time. The synergic promotion effect of acrylate liquid rubber and bisphenol A on the toughness efficiency of epoxy resins is attributed to the two-phase morphology and high ductibility of matrix, and the resultant large stress white zones and high shear yielding during the fracture process.
