An object of the present invention is to provide a golf club shaft having excellent strength. The present invention provides a golf club shaft made of a fiber-reinforced epoxy resin material comprising a cured product of an epoxy resin composition and a reinforcing fiber, wherein the epoxy resin composition comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of a bisphenol A type epoxy resin, a bisphenol F type epoxy resin and a novolac type epoxy resin, and a tetraglycidyl type epoxy resin as an epoxy resin component, and the cured product of the epoxy resin composition has a swelling ratio in a range from 20 mass % to 44 mass % in methyl ethyl ketone.

A soft magnetic resin composition contains flat soft magnetic particles, and a resin component containing an epoxy resin, a phenol resin, and an acrylic resin. The epoxy resin consists of only an epoxy resin having three or more functional groups, the phenol resin consists of only a phenol resin having three or more functional groups, and the content ratio of the acrylic resin in the resin component is 25 mass % or more.

A triazine ring-containing phenol resin obtained by reacting melamine, para-alkylphenol, and formalin is used to provide an epoxy resin composition capable of providing a cured product with excellent flame retardancy, excellent dielectric characteristics such as a low dielectric tangent and a low dielectric constant, and excellent thermal conductivity, a cured product thereof, and a prepreg, a circuit board, a build-up film, a build-up board, a semiconductor sealing material, a semiconductor device, a fiber reinforced composite material, and a formed article using the epoxy resin composition.

The present teachings provide a method and composition related to two component epoxy phosphate ester based foam materials. The present teachings provide a method comprising: providing a two component system, the two component system including an A side and a B side, the A side including epoxy and the B side including phosphate ester and phosphoric acid; mixing the A side and the B side to form a resulting reaction product; wherein the resulting reaction product of the A side and the B side cures at a temperature of less than 50° C. The present teachings provide a composition comprising: a) a first component including epoxy; b) a second component including phosphate ester and phosphoric acid; and wherein a resulting reaction product of the first component and second component cures at a temperature of less than 50° C.

The present application relates to a polymer film and a method for producing a polarizing plate. The present application can provide a polymer film satisfying optical and mechanical durability required in a polarizing plate effectively and capable of forming a polarizing plate without causing bending when applied to a display device, and a method for producing a polarizing plate to which the polymer film is applied.
