The epoxy vinyl ester resin is a molecular structure which is formed by the reaction of epoxy resin and mono-or polycarboxylic acid and contains unsaturated carbon-carbon double bonds, and has the advantages of excellent mechanical property, low viscosity, easy control of curing and the like. However, epoxy vinyl ester resins suffer from the following disadvantages: (1) the shrinkage rate is large, the epoxy vinyl ester resin contains unsaturated carbon-carbon double bonds, the carbon-carbon double bonds are changed into carbon-carbon single bonds in the curing process, the carbon-carbon double bond length is larger than the carbon-carbon single bond length, the shrinkage is generated, and the volume shrinkage rate of the resin casting body is 8-10%; (2) the carbon fiber sizing agent is mainly epoxy resin, epoxy vinyl ester resin adopts a free radical curing mechanism, epoxy resin adopts an addition or catalysis curing mechanism, and the epoxy resin have different curing mechanisms and cannot form effective connection, so that the interface performance is poor.
