ABSTRACT

Hardner for epoxide resin masses The present invention provides a hardner for epoxide resin masses based on dicyandiamide, wherein it contains a) dicyandiamide with a particle size of ?90% ?10 µm.
and b) 0.1 to 30% by weight of silicon dioxide and/or of an oxide of a metal of Group IIA or IIB of the Periodic Table with a large specific surface area.

Description

YO-YO I

Toe prevent invention is concerned with a hardier for epoxide resin masse bayed on dicyandiamide~
It it Noel to use dicyandiam:ide for the harden-in of epoxide resins of US. Patent Specification owe. 2,637,715 and 3,391,113). The advantages of the dicyandiamide are, in particular, its toxicological harmlessness and the absence of smell, as well as its chemically inert behaviGur, so that the resin-hardner mixture ha a good storage-stability.
The disadvantages of dicyandiamide are its poor volubility and the non-optimal distributability of the hardier in the epoxide resin which, for example, can lead to an increased consumption of hardier. However, this increased amount used give rise, in turn, to the effect that the-haxdened resin-can contain regions with a high content-of non-consumed-hardner and thus -can have defects in end product Attempts have not been lacking to improve this problem of the poor di3~ributability in liquid epoxide resins or in epoxide resins melting at a higher-temp-erasure Depending upon the intended use, the follow-in ways have been employed thy use ox an appropriate solvent-or solvent mixture for the production of impregnation solutions from epoxide resin and hardier (cf. Federal Republic of Germany Patent Specification No. 30 26 706 and Gunman Democratic Republic Patent-Specification owe 133 955), .

I

the use of substituted dicyandiamides with improved distributability in epoxide resin masses (cf., for example, French Patent Specification No. 22 07 911), and the use of dicyandiamide dispersions in liquid epoxide resin mixtures.
Whereas, according to the firs way, only a few solvent mixtures could be found which display the necessary criteria, such a good volubility or good compatibility with the epoxide resin mixtures, in the case of the second way, the provision of substituted dicyandiamides is uneconomical because the production of these products gives rise to high operational and investment costs, In the cave of the last-mentioned way, the difficulty arise that dicyandiamide must be used which is as finely divided as pro sidle in order to achieve a good distribution in powdered epoxide resin-hardner mixture or to obtain dispersions in liquid epoxide resin mixtures and, on the other hand, finely-divided dicyandiamide has a marked tendency to cake so that finely-divided dicyandiamide forms agglomerates within a very short space of time which also can scarcely be broken up again by grinding. In the case of dicyandiamide suspensions, this agglomer-anion of finely-ground dicyandiamide leads to the formation of comparatively large flock, which give rise to considerable problems in the epoxide resin ,, mixtures.

I

Therefore, it is an object of the present invention to provide a hardier for epoxide Ryan masse based on dicyandiamide which does not display the above-mentioned known disadvantages, which is characterized by good application-technical properties and which can be produced economically.
Thus, according to the present invention, where is provided a hardier for epoxide resin masses based on dicyandiamide, wherein it contains a) dicyandiamide with a particle size off 90% 10 us and by 0.1 to OWE by weight of silicon dioxide and/or of an oxide of a metal of Group IDA or IT of the Periodic Table with a large specific surface area Surprisingly, we have found that the hardier according to the-present invention for epoxide resin masse has an improved distributability in the oxide resin, as well as an increased storage stability in the epoxide resin-hardner dispersions.--- Furthermore, the addition of silicon dioxide and/or of oxides of metal of Group IDA or JIB of the Periodic Table bring about a sometime considerable shortening of the gel times in comparison with normal dicyandiamide, which was also not foreseeable.
The epoxide resin hardier according to the present invention based on dicyandiamide consists of a dicyandiamide with a particle it I 90% I 10 em. J

~L~2~339 a well a silicon dioxide and/or an oxide of a metal of Group IDA or JIB of the Periodic Table with a large specific surface area the specific surface area preferably being at least 50 m2/gO according to BET, in order to achieve the action according o the present invention. Types of silicon dioxide which are commercially available under the trade awry Aerosol degas), a well a HDK (Weaker), have proved to be especially advantageous.
Especially preferred oxides of metals of Group IDA and JIB of the Periodic Table include magnesium oxide, as well as mixture thereof but, in principle, other oxides, for example those of barium or of strontium, can alto be used.
The amount of the silicon dioxide or of the oxide of a metal of Group IT or JIB of the Periodic able is 0.1 to 3~/0 by weight and preferably from 0.2 to owe by weight referred to the weight of the dicyandiamide.
The production of the epoxide resin hardier according to the present invention preferably takes place by continuously dosing the silicon dioxide and/or the oxide of a metal of Group IT or JIB of the Periodic Table to the dicyandiamide before grinding to the desired grain give so that the metal oxides have the same particle size distribution as the dicyandiamide.

This prevents the finely-ground dicyandiamide from clumping together immediately after the grinding procedure, which would result in the formation of undesired agglomerates. Thus, the mixing of the components can be completed in one step The grinding of the dicyandiamide and/or of the metal oxide can by carried out without problems in conventional technical devices, such as grader mills or the like, i.e. without separation of dicyandiamide and of the metal oxides during the grinding process The dicyandiamide-containing epoxide hardier according to the present invention, which has a bulk density of 300 to 500 gloater, can be optimally distributed in solid or liquid epoxide resins, it thereby being possible to reduce the amount of hardier in comparison with conventional hardness based on dicyandiamide. We have found that amounts I- of 3 to 6% by weight, referred to the epoxide equip -valet weight, are sufficient.
The hardening reaction with the hardier accord-in to the present invention can be additionally activated with conventional hardening accelerators, for example 2-methylimidazole, substituted urea ~monouron, Doreen), dimethylbenzylamine or substituted methylenedianilines. The hardened epoxide resin has a clearly improved chemical resistance and adhesion in comparison with products produced with conventional J
