Abstract
Abstract An amine resin soluble in water with the aid of an acid is produced by reacting a dihydric phenolic compound, such as a bisphenol, with a stoichiometric deficiency of preferably aromatic diepoxide, and then reacting the product containing less than -0.3 part of unreacted dihydric phenolic compound per part of reaction product with at least about 3.25 mol of formaldehyde per mol of said reaction product and with monosecondary amine to produce a Mannich base. This Mannich base is then reacted with additional diepoxide in an amount of from 0.5 to 2 epoxy equivalents per epoxy equivalent in the initially used diepoxide.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
121 words
An amine resin which is soluble in water with the aid of an acid, produced by reacting a dihydric phenolic compound with diepoxide having a 1,2-epoxy equivalency of at least about 1.4 and providing from 0.3 to 0.6 equivalents of epoxide in said diepoxide per equivalent of phenolic OH in said phenolic compound, and then reacting the reaction product containing less than 0.3 part of unreacted dihydric phenolic compound per part of said reaction product with at least about 3.25 mols of formaldehyde per mol of reaction product and with monosecondary amine to produce Mannich base groups, and then reacting with additional diepoxide in an amount of from 0.5 to 2 epoxy equivalents per epoxy equivalent in the initially used diepoxide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
121 words
An amine resin which is soluble in water with the aid of an acid, produced by reacting a dihydric phenolic compound with diepoxide having a 1,2-epoxy equivalency of at least about 1.4 and providing from 0.3 to 0.6 equivalents of epoxide in said diepoxide per equivalent of phenolic OH in said phenolic compound, and then reacting the reaction product containing less than 0.3 part of unreacted dihydric phenolic compound per part of said reaction product with at least about 3.25 mols of formaldehyde per mol of reaction product and with monosecondary amine to produce Mannich base groups, and then reacting with additional diepoxide in an amount of from 0.5 to 2 epoxy equivalents per epoxy equivalent in the initially used diepoxide.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
An amine resin as recited in claim 1 in which said dihydric phenolic compound is a bisphenol and said diepoxide is aromatic.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
23 words
An amine resin as recited in claim 2 in which more than 3.5 moles of formaldehyde are used per mol of starting bisphenol.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
34 words
An amine resin as recited in claim 3 in which the only unreacted bisphenol present during the reaction with formaldehyde and monosecondary amine is that which was present during the reaction with aromatic diepoxide.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
53 words
An amine resin as recited in claim 2 in which a diglycidyl ether of a bisphenol having a molecular weight of about 350 to about 5000 is reacted with a bisphenol in an amount of 0.3 to 0.6 equivalents of epoxide in said diglycidyl ether per equivalent of phenolic OH in said bisphenol.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
27 words
An amine resin as recited in claim 5 in which said monosecondary amine component is a mixture of C 1 -C 8 dialkyl amine and diethanol amine.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
135 words
An amine resin which is soluble in water with the aid of an acid produced by reacting a bisphenol with a diglycidyl ether of a bisphenol having a molecular weight in the range of 350 to 600 in an amount of 0.3 to 0.6 equivalents of epoxide per equivalent of phenolic OH in said bisphenol, then reacting the product containing less than 0.3 part of unreacted bisphenol per part of said reaction product with more than 3.5 moles of formaldehyde per mol of starting bisphenol to solubilize the formaldehyde, and then reacting with a mixture of C 1 -C 8 dialkyl amine and diethanol amine to produce a Mannich base, and then reacting with additional diepoxide in an amount of from 1 to 1.5 epoxy equivalents per epoxy equivalent in the initially used diglycidyl ether.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
135 words
An amine resin which is soluble in water with the aid of an acid produced by reacting a bisphenol with a diglycidyl ether of a bisphenol having a molecular weight in the range of 350 to 600 in an amount of 0.3 to 0.6 equivalents of epoxide per equivalent of phenolic OH in said bisphenol, then reacting the product containing less than 0.3 part of unreacted bisphenol per part of said reaction product with more than 3.5 moles of formaldehyde per mol of starting bisphenol to solubilize the formaldehyde, and then reacting with a mixture of C 1 -C 8 dialkyl amine and diethanol amine to produce a Mannich base, and then reacting with additional diepoxide in an amount of from 1 to 1.5 epoxy equivalents per epoxy equivalent in the initially used diglycidyl ether.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
29 words
A amine resin as recited in claim 1 dispersed in water with the aid of an acid to provide a bath having a pH in the range of 5-9.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
28 words
A water dispersion as recited in claim 8 in which an aminoplast or phenoplast resin is present in admixture with said amine resin to enhance the cure thereof.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
39 words
An amine resin as recited in claim 7 dispersed in water with the aid of an acid to provide a bath having a pH in the range of 6-8.5, said amine resin being in admixture with an aminoplast resin.
