Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are a low-temperature heat-curable adhesive composition for structures which is able to cure at a low temperature in a short time, is reduced in groove defects after open-state standing, and is excellent in rust-preventive property, corrosion resistance, shower resistance, and workability; and a method for producing an automotive structure using the adhesive composition. The low-temperature heat-curable adhesive composition for structures includes (A) an epoxy resin, (B) a micro-encapsulated curing agent, (C) a hygroscopic agent, (D) a viscosity modifier, and (E) a stabilizer. The hygroscopic agent (C) is calcium oxide, which suitably includes both a surface-treated grade and a non-surface-treated grade.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A low-temperature heat-curable adhesive composition for structures, comprising: (A) an epoxy resin; (B) a micro-encapsulated curing agent; (C) a hygroscopic agent; (D) a viscosity modifier; and (E) a stabilizer, wherein the (C) hygroscopic agent comprises surface-treated calcium oxide and non-surface-treated calcium oxide. 2. The low-temperature heat-curable adhesive composition for structures according to claim 1 , wherein a minimum value of a complex viscosity during warming in dynamic viscoelasticity measurement with a strain of 1% or less after an open-state standing is 200 Pa·s or less.
