Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed are curing compositions for resin systems and in particular for phenolic resin systems and epoxy resin systems, to methods of preparing the curing compositions and to resin systems incorporating same. The curing compositions of the invention are the reaction product of an aldehyde with an amine in the presence of an aprotic solvent.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

We claim: 1. A curing composition for a resin system comprising a reaction product consisting essentially of: paraformaldehyde; melamine; and N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP), and wherein the reaction product is an intermediate product having the structure:  and wherein the melamine: paraformaldehyde mole ratio is from about 1:3 to about 1:8. 2. The curing composition of claim 1 , wherein the intermediate product is water soluble. 3. The curing composition of claim 1 wherein the intermediate product is a binder or a co-curative for a resin system. 4. The curing composition of claim 1 wherein the resin system is a thermoset resin system. 5. The curing composition of claim 1 wherein the resin system is an epoxy or a phenolic resin system. 6. The curing composition of claim 1 wherein the melamine: paraformaldehyde mole ratio is from about 1:3 to about 1:6. 7. The curing composition of claim 6 wherein the melamine: paraformaldehyde mole ratio is from about 1:3 to about 1:5. 8. A method for isolating the intermediate product of claim 1 comprising the step of adding an organic solvent to the reaction product, which organic solvent may or may not be an aprotic solvent, to precipitate the intermediate product out of solution. 9. The method of claim 8 further comprising the step of adding water to the intermediate product.
