Description
HA/K-20056/A 21 ~ 6 0 9 5 ._ Hardener composition for epoxy resins The present invention relates to a composition based on methylene-linked cycloalkylaryl polyamines, aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic alcohols and alkylated or aralkylated phenols, to the use of these compositions as hardeners, to an epoxy resin composition curable therewith and to the material cured accordingly.
Mixtures of polyamines having a carbon structure in the form of methylene-linkedcycloalkyl and aromatic compound groups are currently being increasingly used for curing epoxy resins since, due to the toxicological risks involved, the purely aromatic polyamines frequently used hitherto, in particular 4,4'-(li:~minodiphenylmethane, may only be used under exceptional conditions. Mixtures of methylene-linked cycloalkylaryl polyamines and the use thereof as epoxy resin hardeners are disclosed, inter alia, in EP-A-0 554 823, and give epoxy resin coatings of generally good resistance to chemicals, with the exception of aqueous carboxylic acids, e.g. acetic acid. An aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or, preferably, araliphatic alcohol is usually added to the polyamines as viscosity depressant.
According to EP-A-0 554 823 there may be additionally added to these two components of the hardener a substituted phenol as accelerator. The above-mentioned application discloses, inter alia, a hardener for epoxy resins containing 41.5% by weight of a mixture of methylene-linked cycloalkylaryl polyamines, 41.5% by weight of benzyl alcohol and 3.5% by weight of bisphenol A.
It is the object of this invention to provide a liquid epoxy resin based on methylene-linked cycloalkylaryl polyamines and aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic alcohols having better resistance to aqueous carboxylic acids than the corresponding conventional hardener ~ ules.
Accordingly, the invention relates to a composition essentially consisting of the following components:
Al) polyamines of formula (I) and/or (II) 21~609~

According to EP-A-0 554 823 there may be additionally added to these two components of the hardener a substituted phenol as accelerator. The above-mentioned application discloses, inter alia, a hardener for epoxy resins containing 41.5% by weight of a mixture of methylene-linked cycloalkylaryl polyamines, 41.5% by weight of benzyl alcohol and 3.5% by weight of bisphenol A.
It is the object of this invention to provide a liquid epoxy resin based on methylene-linked cycloalkylaryl polyamines and aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or araliphatic alcohols having better resistance to aqueous carboxylic acids than the corresponding conventional hardener ~ ules.
Accordingly, the invention relates to a composition essentially consisting of the following components:
Al) polyamines of formula (I) and/or (II) 21~609~
H2N { ~ CH24~ NH~ x (I), \~CH2~ NH2 H2N {~CH2~NH2 (l:I), R~

tetracyclohexylamines; 4-(4'-aminobenzyl)cyclohexylamine, 2,4-bis(4-aminocyclohexyl-methyl)aniline and partially hydrogenated trimethylenetetraaniline. The preparation of such polyamines is known to the person skilled in the art and may be carried out in accordance with EP-A-0 554 823 by reacting a condensate of aniline and/or o-toluidine and formaldehyde, consisting of 85 to 50% by weight of corresponding binuclear condensates and 15 to 50% by weight of corresponding tri- and polynuclear condensates, with hydrogen at a pressure of 3.5 to 27.7 MPa (500 to 4000 psig) and in the leml,elature range from 150 to 250C in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst over 1 to 4 hours, and partially or completely isolating any undesirable components.
A preferred embodiment of the inventive compositions essentially consists of components A2), B) and C), wherein component A2) is a polyamine mi~Lule obtainable according to this process.

Component C) of the novel compositions comprises in particular monophenols carrying one, two or three substituents selected from aL~yl groups containing 3 to 18 carbon atoms and from phenylaL~yl groups. Illustrative examples of suitable aikyl groups are in particular n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, n-amyl, sec-amyl, tert-amyl, branched and unbranched hexyl, heptyl, octyl, nonyl, dodecyl or octadecyl. The phenylaryl groups are preferably phenyl-(Cl-C6)aL~yl groups. A particularly preferred example of such a phenylaryl group is that of formula C ~ . In the art, phenols carrying this substituent are often called for short "cumyl phenols". This applies also to this specification, unless other~vise stated. Individual substituents are preferably in ortho- or para-position, substituent pairs in 2,4- or 2,6-position and substituent groups of three in 2,4,6-position to the phenolic hydroxyl group. Typical examples of suitable cullllll.,lcially available monophenols are 2-isopropylphenol, 2-sec-butylphenol, 4-sec-butylphenol, 2-tert-butylphenol, 4-tert-butylphenol, 2-tert-amylphenol, 4-tert-amylphenol, 4-n-octylphenol, 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenol (=

A preferred embodiment of the novel compositions comprises components Al) or A2) in an amount of 40 to 60% by weight, component B) in an amount of 20 to 40% by weight, and component C) in an amount of 10 to 40% by weight, based on the total weight of components Al), B) and C), the sum of all these percentages being 100.
The novel compositions are particularly suitable as hardeners for epoxy resins.
Accordingly, the invention also relates to curable compositions comprising a) at least one epoxy resin, and b) a composition, as described above, as hardener.
Epoxy resins (a) which may suitably be used in the novel curable compositions are the standard epoxy resins of epoxy resin technology containing more than one 1,2-epoxide group in the molecule. Typical examples of epoxy resins are:
I) Polyglycidyl and poly(~-methylglycidyl) esters which are obtainable by reacting a compound containing at least two carboxyl groups in the molecule and epichlorohydrin or ~-methylepichlorohydrin. The reaction is conveniently carried out in the presence of a base.
Compounds containing at least two carboxyl groups in the molecule may suitably be aliphatic polycarboxylic acids. Examples of such polycarboxylic acids are oxalic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid, sebacic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid or dimerised or trimerised linoleic acid. It is, however, also possible to use cycloaliphatic polycarboxylic acids such as tetrahydrophthalic acid, 4-methyltetrahydrophthalic acid, hexahydrophthalic acid, 4-methylhexahydrophthalic acid or cyclohexane- 1,4-dicarboxylic acid. Aromatic polycarboxylic acids can also be used, typically phthalic acid, isophthalic acid and terephthalic acid.
II) Polyglycidyl or poly(~-methylglycidyl) ethers which are obtainable by reacting a compound containing at least two free alcoholic hydroxyl groups and/or phenolic hydroxyl groups and epichlorohydrin or ~-methylepichlorohydrin, under aL~aline conditions or in the presence of an acid catalyst and subsequent treatment with an aL~ali.
The glycidyl ethers of this type are typically derived from acyclic alcohols, typically from 21~6095 ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol and higher poly(oxyethylene) glycols, 1,2-propanediol or poly(oxypropylene) glycols, 1,3-propanediol, 1,4-butanediol, poly(oxytetramethylene) glycols, l,5-pentanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, 2,4,6-hexanetriol, glycerol, l,l,l-trimethylol-propane, pentaerythritol, sorbitol, as well as from polyepichlorohydrins. They may also be derived from cycloaliphatic alcohols such as 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol, bis(4-hydroxy-cyclohexyl)methane or 2,2-bis(4-hydroxycyclohexyl)propane, or they contain aromatic nuclei such as N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aniline or p,p'-bis(2-hydroxyethylamino)diphenyl-methane.
The glycidyl ethers may also be derived from mononuclear phenols, typically fromresorcinol or hydroquinone, or they are derived from polynuclear phenols such as bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)methane, 4,4'-dihydroxybiphenyl, bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)sulfone, 1,1,2,2-tetrakis(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, 2,2-bis(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, as well as from novolaks obtainable by condensation of aldehydes such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, chloral or furfuraldehyde, with phenols such as phenol, or with phenols which are substituted in the nucleus by chlorine atoms or Cl-CgaLkyl groups, for example 4-chlorophenol, 2-methylphenol or 4-tert-butylphenol, or by condensation with bisphenols of the type cited above.
III) Poly(N-glycidyl) compounds obtainable by dehydrochlorination of the reaction products of epichlorohydrin with amines which contain at least two amino hydrogen atoms. These amines are typically aniline, n-butylamine, bis(4-aminophenyl)methane, m-xylylenerli~mine or bis(4-methylaminophenyl)methane. The poly(N-glycidyl) compounds also include triglycidyl isocyanurate, N,N'-diglycidyl derivatives of cycloaLkylene ureas such as ethylene urea or 1,3-propyleneurea, and diglycidyl derivatives of hydantoins, typically of 5,5-dimethylhydantoin.
IV) Poly(S-glycidyl) compounds, preferably bis(S-glycidyl) derivatives which are derived from dithiols such as 1,2-ethanediol or bis(4-mercaptomethylphenyl) ether.
V) Cycloaliphatic epoxy resins, including bis(2,3-epoxycyclopentyl) ether, 2,3-epoxycy-clopentyl glycidyl ether, 1,2-bis(2,3-epoxycyclopentyloxy)ethane or 3,4-epoxycyclohex-ylmethyl-3',4'-epoxycyclohexanecarboxylate.
However, it is also possible to use epoxy resins in which the 1,2-epoxy groups are attached to different hetero atoms or functional groups. These compounds typically 2156~9~
,_ comprise the N,N,O-triglycidyl derivative of 4-aminophenol, the glycidyl ether-glycidyl ester of salicylic acid, N-glycidyl-N'-(2-glycidyloxypropyl)-5,5-dimethylhydantoin or 2-glycidyloxy- 1,3-bis(5,5-dimethyl- 1 -glycidylhydantoin-3-yl)propane.
It is plcrt;llc;d to use as epoxy resin (a) in the novel curable compositions a liquid or viscous polyglycidyl ether or ester, preferably a liquid or viscous diglycidyl ether of a bisphenol.
The aforementioned epoxy compounds are known and some are commercially available.
Mixtures of epoxy resins can also be used.
The amount of hardener will depend on the chemical nature of the hardener and on the desired ~lup~il~ies of the curable mixture and the hardened product. The maximum amount can be readily determined. The amount used is normally 0.75 to 1.25 equivalents of active hydrogen bound to amino nitrogen atoms per 1 epoxide equivalent.
The novel compositions can be prepared in conventional manner by mixing the components by hand stirring or using known mixing aggregates, typically stirrers, knead~.rs or roll mills. The compositions have only a relatively low viscosity.
Depending on the utility, the customary modifiers can be added to the compositions of this invention, including typically fillers, pigments, dyes, flow control agents or plasticisers.
The novel compositions can be cured in per se known manner in one or more steps. The cure is usually effected at room temperature or below room temperature or by heating the compositions to temperatures of up to 120C, preferably in the temperature range from 5 to 50C. The cure is also not aversely affected by relatively high relative humidity.
As mentioned at the outset, the moulded objects or coatings obtained from the compositions of this invention have superior resistance to chemicals, especially to carboxylic acids, for example aqueous acetic acid having a concentration of up to 30% by weight, and to highly concentrated alcohols. They constitute a further object of this mventlon.
Example 1: 1.75 g of Ancamine(~) X2168 (commercially available mixture of polyamines of formula (I) and (II)) are heated to 60C and 0.75 g of benzyl alcohol is added. The 21~609~
._ mixture is then cooled and, with stirring, 1.0 g of 2,6-bis-tert-butyl-4-nonylphenol is added. The mixture has a viscosity of 5100 mPa-s at 25C.
Examples 2 - 6: Analogous hardener compositions are prepared with the phenols listed in the following Table and their viscosity is determined at 25C.
Example Phenol Amount Viscosity 2 4-nonylphenol 1.0 g 9920 mPa-s 3 4-cumylphenol 0.5 g 7840 mPa-s 4 2,4-dicumylphenol 0.5 g 10610 mPa-s 2,4-bis-tert-amylphenol 0.5 g 7200 mPa-s 6 2-tert-butyl-4-cumylphenol 0.5 g 9440 mPa-s Example 7: 3.5 g of the hardener of Example 1 are thoroughly mixed with 5.38 g of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A having an epoxy value of 5.25 - 5.40 equivalents/kg and a viscosity of 10000 - 12000 mPa-s. After mixing and brief therrnostating, the n~i~lulc; has a viscosity of 6400 mPa-s. After a further S minutes at 25C the viscosity increases to 7040 mPa-s. The llu~ure is applied with a 0.200 mm coating knife to a glass plate and fully cured at 20C.
Example 8: 3.5 g of the hardener of Example 1 are thoroughly mixed with 5.41 g of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A having an epoxy value of 5.25 - 5.40 equivalents/kg and a viscosity of 10000 - 12000 mPa-s. The mixture is applied with a brush to sand-blasted steel plates. Clear hard layers form after a few hours at 20C.
If the mixture is applied with a 0.200 mm coating knife to a glass plate and cured at 20C
for a day, the pendulum hardness according to Persoz (measured with a pendulum hardness tester supplied by BYK-CHEMIE) is 115 s. After a 7-day cure at 20C thePersoz hardness has increased to 284 s and after 14 days to 293 s. If curing is carried out at 5C, the pendulum hardness after 7 days is 97 s and after 14 days 146 s. The mixture also cures satisfactorily at 20C and 100% relative humidity as well as at 5C and 45% relative humidity, with no or only very minor surface haæ.
Example 9: 1.75 g of Ancamine(3~ X2168 (commercially available mixture of polyamines of formula (I) and (II)), 0.75 g of benzyl alcohol and 1.4 g of 4-nonylphenol are 215609~
,_ thoroughly mixed with 5.41 g of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A having an epoxy value of 5.25 - 5.40 equivalents/kg and a viscosity of 10000 - 12000 mPa-s. The ~ ulG is applied with a brush to sand-blasted steel plates. Clear hard layers form after a few hours at 20C.
If the mixture is applied with a 0.200 mrn coating knife to a glass plate and cured for one day at 20C, the pen~nlllm hardness according to Persoz (measured with a pendulum hardness tester supplied by BYK-CHEME) is 97 s. After a 7-day cure at 20C the Persoz hardness increases to 246 s. If curing is carried out at 5C, the penfllllum hardness after 7 days is 91 s and after 14 days 133 s. This Illi~Ul~; also cures satisfactorily at 20C and 100% relative hllmiflity as well as at 5C and 45% relative humidity, with no or only very minor surface haze.
Resistance to chemicals is determined after an 8-day cure at 20C as follows: Steel plates coated with the mi~ur~s of Examples 8 and 9 are half-wetted in a clarnping device with the test media and checked daily. The layers resist the chemicals for the number of days specified in the following Table without blistering or peeling from the plate.

The novel compositions are particularly suitable as hardeners for epoxy resins.
Accordingly, the invention also relates to curable compositions comprising a) at least one epoxy resin, and b) a composition, as described above, as hardener.
Epoxy resins (a) which may suitably be used in the novel curable compositions are the standard epoxy resins of epoxy resin technology containing more than one 1,2-epoxide group in the molecule. Typical examples of epoxy resins are:
I) Polyglycidyl and poly(~-methylglycidyl) esters which are obtainable by reacting a compound containing at least two carboxyl groups in the molecule and epichlorohydrin or ~-methylepichlorohydrin. The reaction is conveniently carried out in the presence of a base.
Compounds containing at least two carboxyl groups in the molecule may suitably be aliphatic polycarboxylic acids. Examples of such polycarboxylic acids are oxalic acid, succinic acid, glutaric acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid, sebacic acid, suberic acid, azelaic acid or dimerised or trimerised linoleic acid. It is, however, also possible to use cycloaliphatic polycarboxylic acids such as tetrahydrophthalic acid, 4-methyltetrahydrophthalic acid, hexahydrophthalic acid, 4-methylhexahydrophthalic acid or cyclohexane- 1,4-dicarboxylic acid. Aromatic polycarboxylic acids can also be used, typically phthalic acid, isophthalic acid and terephthalic acid.
II) Polyglycidyl or poly(~-methylglycidyl) ethers which are obtainable by reacting a compound containing at least two free alcoholic hydroxyl groups and/or phenolic hydroxyl groups and epichlorohydrin or ~-methylepichlorohydrin, under aL~aline conditions or in the presence of an acid catalyst and subsequent treatment with an aL~ali.
The glycidyl ethers of this type are typically derived from acyclic alcohols, typically from 21~6095 ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol and higher poly(oxyethylene) glycols, 1,2-propanediol or poly(oxypropylene) glycols, 1,3-propanediol, 1,4-butanediol, poly(oxytetramethylene) glycols, l,5-pentanediol, 1,6-hexanediol, 2,4,6-hexanetriol, glycerol, l,l,l-trimethylol-propane, pentaerythritol, sorbitol, as well as from polyepichlorohydrins. They may also be derived from cycloaliphatic alcohols such as 1,4-cyclohexanedimethanol, bis(4-hydroxy-cyclohexyl)methane or 2,2-bis(4-hydroxycyclohexyl)propane, or they contain aromatic nuclei such as N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)aniline or p,p'-bis(2-hydroxyethylamino)diphenyl-methane.
The glycidyl ethers may also be derived from mononuclear phenols, typically fromresorcinol or hydroquinone, or they are derived from polynuclear phenols such as bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)methane, 4,4'-dihydroxybiphenyl, bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)sulfone, 1,1,2,2-tetrakis(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethane, 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, 2,2-bis(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, as well as from novolaks obtainable by condensation of aldehydes such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, chloral or furfuraldehyde, with phenols such as phenol, or with phenols which are substituted in the nucleus by chlorine atoms or Cl-CgaLkyl groups, for example 4-chlorophenol, 2-methylphenol or 4-tert-butylphenol, or by condensation with bisphenols of the type cited above.
III) Poly(N-glycidyl) compounds obtainable by dehydrochlorination of the reaction products of epichlorohydrin with amines which contain at least two amino hydrogen atoms. These amines are typically aniline, n-butylamine, bis(4-aminophenyl)methane, m-xylylenerli~mine or bis(4-methylaminophenyl)methane. The poly(N-glycidyl) compounds also include triglycidyl isocyanurate, N,N'-diglycidyl derivatives of cycloaLkylene ureas such as ethylene urea or 1,3-propyleneurea, and diglycidyl derivatives of hydantoins, typically of 5,5-dimethylhydantoin.
IV) Poly(S-glycidyl) compounds, preferably bis(S-glycidyl) derivatives which are derived from dithiols such as 1,2-ethanediol or bis(4-mercaptomethylphenyl) ether.
V) Cycloaliphatic epoxy resins, including bis(2,3-epoxycyclopentyl) ether, 2,3-epoxycy-clopentyl glycidyl ether, 1,2-bis(2,3-epoxycyclopentyloxy)ethane or 3,4-epoxycyclohex-ylmethyl-3',4'-epoxycyclohexanecarboxylate.
However, it is also possible to use epoxy resins in which the 1,2-epoxy groups are attached to different hetero atoms or functional groups. These compounds typically 2156~9~
,_ comprise the N,N,O-triglycidyl derivative of 4-aminophenol, the glycidyl ether-glycidyl ester of salicylic acid, N-glycidyl-N'-(2-glycidyloxypropyl)-5,5-dimethylhydantoin or 2-glycidyloxy- 1,3-bis(5,5-dimethyl- 1 -glycidylhydantoin-3-yl)propane.
It is plcrt;llc;d to use as epoxy resin (a) in the novel curable compositions a liquid or viscous polyglycidyl ether or ester, preferably a liquid or viscous diglycidyl ether of a bisphenol.
The aforementioned epoxy compounds are known and some are commercially available.
Mixtures of epoxy resins can also be used.
The amount of hardener will depend on the chemical nature of the hardener and on the desired ~lup~il~ies of the curable mixture and the hardened product. The maximum amount can be readily determined. The amount used is normally 0.75 to 1.25 equivalents of active hydrogen bound to amino nitrogen atoms per 1 epoxide equivalent.
The novel compositions can be prepared in conventional manner by mixing the components by hand stirring or using known mixing aggregates, typically stirrers, knead~.rs or roll mills. The compositions have only a relatively low viscosity.
Depending on the utility, the customary modifiers can be added to the compositions of this invention, including typically fillers, pigments, dyes, flow control agents or plasticisers.
The novel compositions can be cured in per se known manner in one or more steps. The cure is usually effected at room temperature or below room temperature or by heating the compositions to temperatures of up to 120C, preferably in the temperature range from 5 to 50C. The cure is also not aversely affected by relatively high relative humidity.
As mentioned at the outset, the moulded objects or coatings obtained from the compositions of this invention have superior resistance to chemicals, especially to carboxylic acids, for example aqueous acetic acid having a concentration of up to 30% by weight, and to highly concentrated alcohols. They constitute a further object of this mventlon.
Example 1: 1.75 g of Ancamine(~) X2168 (commercially available mixture of polyamines of formula (I) and (II)) are heated to 60C and 0.75 g of benzyl alcohol is added. The 21~609~
._ mixture is then cooled and, with stirring, 1.0 g of 2,6-bis-tert-butyl-4-nonylphenol is added. The mixture has a viscosity of 5100 mPa-s at 25C.
Examples 2 - 6: Analogous hardener compositions are prepared with the phenols listed in the following Table and their viscosity is determined at 25C.
Example Phenol Amount Viscosity 2 4-nonylphenol 1.0 g 9920 mPa-s 3 4-cumylphenol 0.5 g 7840 mPa-s 4 2,4-dicumylphenol 0.5 g 10610 mPa-s 2,4-bis-tert-amylphenol 0.5 g 7200 mPa-s 6 2-tert-butyl-4-cumylphenol 0.5 g 9440 mPa-s Example 7: 3.5 g of the hardener of Example 1 are thoroughly mixed with 5.38 g of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A having an epoxy value of 5.25 - 5.40 equivalents/kg and a viscosity of 10000 - 12000 mPa-s. After mixing and brief therrnostating, the n~i~lulc; has a viscosity of 6400 mPa-s. After a further S minutes at 25C the viscosity increases to 7040 mPa-s. The llu~ure is applied with a 0.200 mm coating knife to a glass plate and fully cured at 20C.
Example 8: 3.5 g of the hardener of Example 1 are thoroughly mixed with 5.41 g of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A having an epoxy value of 5.25 - 5.40 equivalents/kg and a viscosity of 10000 - 12000 mPa-s. The mixture is applied with a brush to sand-blasted steel plates. Clear hard layers form after a few hours at 20C.
If the mixture is applied with a 0.200 mm coating knife to a glass plate and cured at 20C
for a day, the pendulum hardness according to Persoz (measured with a pendulum hardness tester supplied by BYK-CHEMIE) is 115 s. After a 7-day cure at 20C thePersoz hardness has increased to 284 s and after 14 days to 293 s. If curing is carried out at 5C, the pendulum hardness after 7 days is 97 s and after 14 days 146 s. The mixture also cures satisfactorily at 20C and 100% relative humidity as well as at 5C and 45% relative humidity, with no or only very minor surface haæ.
Example 9: 1.75 g of Ancamine(3~ X2168 (commercially available mixture of polyamines of formula (I) and (II)), 0.75 g of benzyl alcohol and 1.4 g of 4-nonylphenol are 215609~
,_ thoroughly mixed with 5.41 g of diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A having an epoxy value of 5.25 - 5.40 equivalents/kg and a viscosity of 10000 - 12000 mPa-s. The ~ ulG is applied with a brush to sand-blasted steel plates. Clear hard layers form after a few hours at 20C.
If the mixture is applied with a 0.200 mrn coating knife to a glass plate and cured for one day at 20C, the pen~nlllm hardness according to Persoz (measured with a pendulum hardness tester supplied by BYK-CHEME) is 97 s. After a 7-day cure at 20C the Persoz hardness increases to 246 s. If curing is carried out at 5C, the penfllllum hardness after 7 days is 91 s and after 14 days 133 s. This Illi~Ul~; also cures satisfactorily at 20C and 100% relative hllmiflity as well as at 5C and 45% relative humidity, with no or only very minor surface haze.
Resistance to chemicals is determined after an 8-day cure at 20C as follows: Steel plates coated with the mi~ur~s of Examples 8 and 9 are half-wetted in a clarnping device with the test media and checked daily. The layers resist the chemicals for the number of days specified in the following Table without blistering or peeling from the plate.
