【従来の技術】
エポキシ樹脂は種々の硬化剤で硬化させることにより、一般的に機械的性質、耐水性、耐薬品性、耐熱性、電気的性質などに優れた硬化物となり、接着剤、塗料、積層板、成形材料、注型材料などの幅広い分野に利用されている。従来、工業的に最も使用されているエポキシ樹脂としてビスフェノ−ルAにエピクロルヒドリンを反応させて得られる液状および固形のビスフェノ−ルA型エポキシ樹脂がある。その他液状のビスフェノ−ルA型エポキシ樹脂にテトラブロムビスフェノ−ルAを反応させて得られる難燃性固形エポキシ樹脂などが汎用エポキシ樹脂として工業的に使用されている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、前記したような汎用エポキシ樹脂は分子量が大きくなるにつれて、それを使用して得られる硬化物の機械強度は向上するものの粘度も上昇し作業性が低下するという欠点がある。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明者らはこうした実状に鑑み、機械強度に優れた硬化物を与え、しかも粘度の低いエポキシ樹脂を求めて鋭意研究した結果、特定の分子構造を有するエポキシ樹脂が低粘度であり、その硬化物において優れた靭性(機械強度)を付与するものであることを見いだし本発明を完成させるに到った。

Excess epichlorohydrin and the like were distilled off at 130 ° C. under reduced pressure by heating, and 690 parts of methyl isobutyl ketone was added to the residue and dissolved.
[0036]
Further, this methyl isobutyl ketone solution was heated to 70 ° C., 10 parts of a 30% by weight aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was added and reacted for 1 hour, and then washed with water until the pH of the washing solution became neutral. Further, the aqueous layer was separated and removed, and methyl isobutyl ketone was distilled off from the oil layer under heating and reduced pressure using a rotary evaporator.

(In the formula, the average value of n is 2.6, and G represents a glycidyl group.)
[0039]
293 parts of the epoxy resin (A) of the present invention represented by the formula: The obtained epoxy resin was liquid and the epoxy equivalent was 363 g / eq.
[0040]
Example 2
In Example 1, the reaction was performed in the same manner as in Synthesis Example 1 except that 385 parts of the compound in which the average value of n in formula (3) was 4.8 instead of 2.6 was used. 374 parts of the epoxy resin (B) of the present invention was obtained. The obtained epoxy resin was liquid and the epoxy equivalent was 459 g / eq.
[0041]
Examples 3 and 4 and Comparative Example 1
For the epoxy resin (A) and epoxy resin (B) obtained as Examples 3 and 4, methyl nadic acid anhydride (Kayahard MCD, manufactured by Nippon Kayaku Co., Ltd.) was used as the curing agent, and 2- Using methyl-4-ethylimidazole (2E4MZ), blended in the proportions shown in the composition column of Table 1, mixed, cast, and cast at 80 ° C for 2 hours, 120 ° C for 2 hours, and 200 ° C. A test piece was prepared by curing for 5 hours, and the bending strength was measured according to JIS K-6911. The results are shown in Table 1. In addition, the numerical value in the column of the composition of the compound in a table | surface represents a part.
[0042]
[Table 1]

[0043]
From Table 1, it is clear that the cured product of the epoxy resin of the present invention exhibits high bending strength.
[0044]
【The invention's effect】
The epoxy resin of the present invention is liquid and gives a cured product having excellent mechanical strength as compared with epoxy resins that have been generally used.
That is, the epoxy resin of the present invention can give a cured product having excellent mechanical strength, and is extremely useful for a wide range of applications such as molding materials, casting materials, laminated materials, paints, adhesives, and resists.
