Composition of a monoepoxide modified polyamide and an epoxy resin

Claim 1

A COMPOSITION COMPRISING (1) A POLYAMIDE-MONOESPOIDE CONDENSATE HAVING AN EPOZY-DERIVED OXYGEN-TONITROGEN ATOM RATIO OF FROM ABOUT 1:3 TO ABOUT 1:1, OBTAINED BY THE CONDENSATION OF A POLYAMIDE AND A MONOEXPOXIDE COMPOUND,WHEREIN SAID POLYAMIDE IS OBTAINED BY HEATING AT A TEMPERATURE SUFFICIENTLY HIGH TO BRING ABOUT AMIDE FORMATION OF DICARBOXYLIC ALIPHATIC ACID CONTAINING FROM 4 TO ABOUT 36 CARBON ATOMS WITH AN ALIPHATIC POLYAMINE HAVING FROM 2 TO ABOUT ABOUT 5 NITROGEN ATOMS WHEREIN AT LEAST 2 OF SAID NITROGEN ATOMS ARE PRIMARY AMINO NITROGENS, AND FROM 2 TO ABOUT 12 CARBON ATOMS, WHEREIN SAID POLYAMINE AND SAID ACID ARE PRESENT IN THE RATIO OF FROM ABOUT 1:2 TO ABOUT 3:2 POLYAMINE-TO-ACID, AND SAID MONOEPOXIDE COMPOUND HAS FROM AT ABOUT 2 TO ABOUT 12 CARBON ATOMS, AND HAS THE GENERAL FORMULA FIG -01 IN WHICH EACH OF R1, R2, R3, R4 R5 AND R6 IS SELECTED FROM THE CLASS CONSISTING OF HYDROGEN ATOMS AND HYDROCARBON GROUPS HAVING FROM 1 TO ABOUT 10 CARBON ATOMS, AN N IS INTEGER TAKEN FROM THE SERIES 0, 1, 2, 3 . . . AND (2) A GYLCIDYL POLYETHER HAVING A 1,2-EPOXY EQUIVALENCY BETWEEN 1.0 TO 2.0, AND WHEREIN THE RATIO OF (1)-TO(2) IS FROM ABOUT 1:30 TO ABOUT 3:1 IN PARTS BY WEIGHT.
