Abstract:
Epoxy adhesive compositions contain a heat-activatable catalyst. The heat-activatable catalyst includes a tertiary amine catalyst and a novolac resin that has a weight average molecular weight of at least 3000. One-component epoxy adhesive formulations that contain the heat-activatable catalyst have unexpectedly good storage stability.
Abstract:
A heat-curable structural adhesive includes a non-rubber-modified epoxy resin, a reaction product of a carboxyl- or amine-terminated butadiene polymer or copolymer and a bisphenol F-based epoxy resin, a elastomeric toughener containing capped isocyanate groups, one or more epoxy curing agents a moisture scavenger and a heat activatable catalyst comprising a mixture of a solid or liquid tertiary amine compound that has a boiling temperature of at least 130°C and a novolac resin. The structural adhesive develops excellent bonding properties when cured at moderate temperatures, especially from 120 to 170°C, and in addition performs very well in environmental aging stress testing. The adhesive is particularly good for bonding aluminum to another metal, or bonding aluminum to aluminum.
Abstract:
adesivo estrutural termocurável e processo para unir e soldar membros metálicos. adesivo estrutural termocurável que inclui pelo menos uma resina epoxi não modificada com borracha; uma borracha opcional ou enrijecedor, um ou mais agentes de cura epoxi, um ou mais catalisadores de cura epoxi; e uma mistura retardante de chama que inclui i) triidrato de alumina, (ii) borato de zinco, e (iii) melamina ou derivado de melamina. o adesivo estrutural é útil para unir metais a outros materiais ou metais a outros metais. o adesivo estrutural resiste fortemente à combustão quando a soldagem é realizada na presença do material não curado, e não interfere significativamente com o desempenho da solda.
Abstract:
A heat-curable structural adhesive includes at least one non-rubber-modified epoxy resin; an optional rubber or toughener, one or more epoxy curing agents, one or more epoxy curing catalysts; and a flame retardant mixture that includes (i) alumina trihydrate, (ii) zinc borate and (iii) melamine or a melamine derivative. The structural adhesive is useful for bonding metals to other materials or metals to other metals. The structural adhesive strongly resists ignition when welding is performed in the presence of the uncured material, and does not interfere significantly with weld performance.
