Abstract

Abstract The process for preparing an adhesive composition comprising mixing (a) an epoxy resin component composed of an epoxy resin and the partial reaction product of a polyepoxide with a phenolic compound, with (b) a hardener component composed of a primary and secondary amine containing polyamine or a poly amido-amine and a tertiary amine containing epoxy curing catalyst is described.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 66 words
A process for preparing an improved epoxy adhesive composition comprising mixing (a) an epoxy resin component containing a polyepoxide resin having more than one group of the formula ##STR2## and the partial reaction product of a polyepoxide with phenol, with (b) a hardener component composed of either a primary and secondary amine containing polyamine or a poly amido-amine, and a tertiary amine containing epoxy curing catalyst.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 66 words
A process for preparing an improved epoxy adhesive composition comprising mixing (a) an epoxy resin component containing a polyepoxide resin having more than one group of the formula ##STR2## and the partial reaction product of a polyepoxide with phenol, with (b) a hardener component composed of either a primary and secondary amine containing polyamine or a poly amido-amine, and a tertiary amine containing epoxy curing catalyst.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the partial reaction product in (a) is made from 0.02 to 0.4 equivalents of phenol per equivalent of polyepoxide.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 36 words
The process of claim 2 wherein the polyamine of (b) is poly(propylene oxide) di- or tri-primary amine of molecular weight ranging from 200-10,000 or one selected from the group consisting of ethylene diamine and aminoethyl piperazine.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 22 words
The process of claim 3 wherein the reaction product in (a) is made from a liquid diglycidyl ether of Bis-phenol-A and phenol.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 30 words
The process of claim 3 wherein the amount of epoxy curing catalyst used is in the range of from 1-10% be weight based on the weight of the hardener component.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 10 words
The adhesive composition made by the process of claim 1.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 43 words
The process for adhering two or more SMC surfaces to each other comprising placing the adhesive composition of claim 1 between said surfaces and curing the resulting material at a temperature in the range of from about 25° C. to about 200° C.
