Abstract
Abstract A composition, which is suitable for use as an adhesive, is made by mixing: (A) 1 part of an adduct reaction product consisting of a solid epoxy resin and a stoichiometric excess of an aliphatic amine; with (B) about 1 part to about 6 parts of a reactive solid epoxy resin powder having an average particle size of from about 10 microns to about 420 microns, the mixture being capable of melting at temperatures of over about 60 DEG C; wherein the epoxy of (B) remains unreacted until melting.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
219 words
A composition admixture which consists of: (A) a particulated solid reaction product adduct consisting of: (i) 1 part by weight of a solid epoxy resin selected from the group consisting of diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol A epoxy resins, diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol F epoxy resins, and mixtures thereof, and (ii) about 0.20 part by weight of about 1.5 parts by weight of an aliphatic polyamine, to provide a stoichiometric excess of amine, and (B) about 1 part by weight to about 6 parts by weight, for each 1 part of adduct, of a reactive solid epoxy resin powder having an average particle size range of from about 10 microns to about 420 microns, selected from the group consisting of diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol A epoxy resin, diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol F epoxy resins and mixtures thereof, having a melting point of between about 55° C. to about 225° C.; wherein the composition is a solid two phase reactive mass comprising a uniform solid dispersion of adduct (A) and epoxy powder (B), wherein the melting point of the adduct is within about 1° C. to about 50° C. of the melting point of the epoxy powder; said composition being capable of melting at temperatures of over about 60° C., and forming a cross linked adhesive material on cooling after melting.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
219 words
A composition admixture which consists of: (A) a particulated solid reaction product adduct consisting of: (i) 1 part by weight of a solid epoxy resin selected from the group consisting of diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol A epoxy resins, diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol F epoxy resins, and mixtures thereof, and (ii) about 0.20 part by weight of about 1.5 parts by weight of an aliphatic polyamine, to provide a stoichiometric excess of amine, and (B) about 1 part by weight to about 6 parts by weight, for each 1 part of adduct, of a reactive solid epoxy resin powder having an average particle size range of from about 10 microns to about 420 microns, selected from the group consisting of diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol A epoxy resin, diglycidyl ethers of bisphenol F epoxy resins and mixtures thereof, having a melting point of between about 55° C. to about 225° C.; wherein the composition is a solid two phase reactive mass comprising a uniform solid dispersion of adduct (A) and epoxy powder (B), wherein the melting point of the adduct is within about 1° C. to about 50° C. of the melting point of the epoxy powder; said composition being capable of melting at temperatures of over about 60° C., and forming a cross linked adhesive material on cooling after melting.
