Abstract

Abstract There are disclosed herein water-dilutable reactive polyamide resins suitable for curing epoxy resins in aqueous systems. The polyamide resins are made by reacting together a C21-cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acid of the formula <IMAGE> wherein x and y are integers from 3 to 9, x and y together equal 12, X is a member of the group consisting of H and COOH with one X of each moiety and a polyamine of the group diethylene triamine, triethylene tetramine and tetraethylene pentamine. These polyamide resins are soluble when water is added to the resin in amounts up to at least 45% by weight.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 106 words
A method of producing a water-dilutable reactive polyamide resin comprising; a. reacting a C 21 -cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acid of the formula ##STR4## wherein x and y are integers from 3 to 9, x and y together equal 12, X is a member of the group consisting of H and COOH, with one X of each moiety and a polyamine selected from the group consisting of diethylene triamine, triethylene tetramine and tetraethylene pentamine to form a polyamide resin, said C 21 -cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acid to polyamine being in a weight ratio from 1.5:1 to 3:1. and b. adding water up to about 55% to said polyamide resin.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 106 words
A method of producing a water-dilutable reactive polyamide resin comprising; a. reacting a C 21 -cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acid of the formula ##STR4## wherein x and y are integers from 3 to 9, x and y together equal 12, X is a member of the group consisting of H and COOH, with one X of each moiety and a polyamine selected from the group consisting of diethylene triamine, triethylene tetramine and tetraethylene pentamine to form a polyamide resin, said C 21 -cycloaliphatic dicarboxylic acid to polyamine being in a weight ratio from 1.5:1 to 3:1. and b. adding water up to about 55% to said polyamide resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method of claim 1 wherein from 0.25% to 25% by weight of an acid is added to said water-dilutable polyamide resin.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method of claim 2 wherein from 1% to 10% by weight of acetic acid is added to said water-dilutable polyamide resin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 135 words
A water-dilutable coating composition comprising; a. 5-90% by weight of water as a solvent component, b. 5-40% by weight of an epoxy resin, c. 5-40% by weight of a polyamide resin produced by reacting a dibasic acid of the formula ##STR5## wherein x and y are integers from 3 to 9, x and y together equal 12, X is a member of the group consisting of H and COOH with one X of each moiety and a polyamine selected from the group consisting of diethylene triamine, triethylene tetramine and tetraethylene pentamine, said dibasic acid to polyamine being in a weight ratio from 1.5:1 to 3:1, d. said water being added to said polyamide resin to form a solution, and e. said polyamide resin solution being mixed with said epoxy resin to form a stable emulsion.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 135 words
A water-dilutable coating composition comprising; a. 5-90% by weight of water as a solvent component, b. 5-40% by weight of an epoxy resin, c. 5-40% by weight of a polyamide resin produced by reacting a dibasic acid of the formula ##STR5## wherein x and y are integers from 3 to 9, x and y together equal 12, X is a member of the group consisting of H and COOH with one X of each moiety and a polyamine selected from the group consisting of diethylene triamine, triethylene tetramine and tetraethylene pentamine, said dibasic acid to polyamine being in a weight ratio from 1.5:1 to 3:1, d. said water being added to said polyamide resin to form a solution, and e. said polyamide resin solution being mixed with said epoxy resin to form a stable emulsion.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 16 words
The water-dilutable coating composition of claim 4 wherein said epoxy resin is of the Bisphenol-A type.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method of claim 4 wherein from 0.25% to 25% by weight of an acid is added to said polyamide resin solution.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 22 words
The method of claim 4 wherein from 1% to 10% by weight of acetic acid is added to said water-dilutable polyamide resin.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 26 words
The method of claim 1 wherein said water is added to said polyamide resin in an amount from 10% to 50% by weight of said resin.
