Abstract

The present invention provides a gel time controllable epoxy adhesive, which includes a first part comprising an epoxy resin containing two or more epoxy groups in one molecule, and a second part comprising a thiol curing agent, wherein a peroxide is comprised in part A, part B and/or a third separate part C.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An epoxy adhesive comprising at least two parts, which includes
a first part A comprising at least one epoxy resin containing two or more epoxy groups in one molecule, and
a second part B comprising at least one thiol curing agent, wherein at least one peroxide containing a —O—O— structure is comprised in part A, part B or if present a third separate part C, wherein
the first part A comprises 100 parts by weight of an epoxy resin containing two or more epoxy groups in one molecule;
the second part B comprises 110 to 120 parts by weight of a thiol curing agent,
wherein 0.03 to 3 parts by weight of a peroxide containing a —O—O— structure is present in at least one of part A, part B or a separate part C.

2. The epoxy adhesive of claim 1 , wherein 0.05 to 5 parts by weight of a curing accelerator is present in at least one of part A, part B or a separate part C.

3. The epoxy adhesive of claim 1 , wherein the first part comprises 100 parts by weight of an epoxy resin containing two or more epoxy groups in one molecule; 0.2 to 2 parts by weight of a peroxide containing a —O—O— structure; 6 to 7 parts by weight of silane, and 4 to 5 parts by weight of thixotropic agent; and the second part comprises 113 to 118 parts by weight of a thiol curing agent, 0.2 to 5 parts by weight of an accelerator, and 12 to 16 parts by weight of filler.

4. The epoxy adhesive of claim 1 , wherein the peroxide has a formula of R1-O—O—R2, wherein R1 and R2 are each independently selected from hydrogen atom, an alkyl group of 1 to 10 carbon atoms and aromatic group including one or more phenyl group(s).

5. The epoxy adhesive of claim 1 , wherein the thiol curing agent contains one or more —R3-SH groups in one molecule, R3 is an alkylene group including 2 to 16 carbon atoms or an aromatic group.
