Tricylic diamines as curing agents for epoxy ResinsMore freedom in formulating
Abstract
Amino- and Hydroxy-functionalized Tricyclodecaneframes are basically accessible by hydroformylation of commercially readily Dicyclopentadiene, followed by amination and hydrogenation reactions. Both materials offer many opportunities-out of which just a few segments were shown- to boost and alter formulation properties in adhesive, potting, sealant and coating applications. TCD-dimethanol(TCD-DM) was shown to improve significantly water vapor barrier properties which is of technical interest to secondary sealants for insulating glass panes(publication in preparation). Thus, it is fascinating to discover and identify future applications for TCD-diamine and TCD-DM in existing or upcoming adhesive and sealant challenges
