John ..

CTE (coefficent of thermal expansion) & dielectric constant typically
increase above the glass transition ... mechanical strength decreases ...
the lap shear strength of an epoxy resin that is 4500 psi at room
temperature can decline to less than 200 psi above its glass transition.
Delamination of cured composite laminates above the glass transition is a
reality.  At least for most applications, delamination and increased
dielectric are  concerns.
