Abstract

Abstract A polyamine of the formula <CHEM> wherein R1 is H or C1-12 alkyl; R2 and R3 are independently selected from H and C1-8 alkyl; R4 is H or <CHEM> R5 is a radical having a valency of n and which is the radical of a C5-30 alkane, a C12-30 aromatic compound or C5-60 cycloalkane or is derived from an amine-terminated polygycol having a molecular weight of from 100 to 6,000 and from 2 to 100 ether linkages; and n is an integer of from 2 to 15. <??>These compounds can be used as curing agents for epoxy resins. They can be prepared by reduction of novel nitro analogues, themselves prepared from a nitroalkane, an aldehyde and a polyamine.
