hardener

A monocarboxylic derivative of Epidian-6 with free epoxy and carboxylic end groups (MCDER) has been synthesized using Epidian-6 epoxy resin and sebacic acid. The structure of MCDER was confirmed by a spectral analysis. The thermal stability of MCDER has been established and the formation of cross-linked films based on epoxy-oligomeric mixtures consisting of Epidian-5, TGM-3 oligoesteracrylate, and polyethylene polyamine has been studied in its presence. By means of IR spectroscopy, the chemistry of the mixtures formation has been established.

The reaction of chemical modification of ED-20 epoxy resin with isopropylbenzene hydroperoxide has been studied. The process duration effect on the reaction between resin and hydroperoxide has been determined. The possibility to use the synthesized product as a component in the process of epoxy-oligoesteric compositions crosslinking with application of hardeners various by their nature has been studied.
