Description

溶剂组合物solvent composition

本发明涉及一种溶剂组合物和该溶剂组合物作为以下物质的稀释剂的用途:一种或多种环氧树脂,和/或一种或多种环氧树脂固化剂,和/或一种或多种固化催化剂,和/或一种或多种固化抑制剂。The present invention relates to a solvent composition and the use of the solvent composition as a diluent for one or more epoxy resins, and/or one or more epoxy resin curing agents, and/or one or more curing catalysts, and/or one or more curing inhibitors.

发明背景Background of the invention

现有技术已知使用有机溶剂来降低液体环氧树脂或其液体固化剂的粘度,或使有机溶剂中的固体树脂和/或固化剂增溶,以便于加工环氧树脂和/或固化剂。It is known in the prior art to use organic solvents to reduce the viscosity of liquid epoxy resins or their liquid curing agents, or to solubilize solid resins and/or curing agents in organic solvents to facilitate processing of epoxy resins and/or curing agents.

优良的环氧树脂固化剂如双氰胺的溶剂,为二甲基甲酰胺和乙二醇一甲醚。但是,二甲基甲酰胺或乙二醇一甲醚的使用已引起了工业卫生学关注。Excellent solvents for epoxy resin curing agents such as dicyandiamide are dimethylformamide and ethylene glycol monomethyl ether. However, the use of dimethylformamide or ethylene glycol monomethyl ether has raised industrial hygiene concerns.

因此,本发明目的在于发现新的溶剂,其用于溶解环氧树脂、环氧树脂固化剂、固化催化剂或固化抑制剂,或用于降低这些化合物的粘度。It was therefore an object of the present invention to find new solvents for dissolving epoxy resins, epoxy resin curing agents, curing catalysts or curing inhibitors, or for reducing the viscosity of these compounds.

环氧树脂的已知用途是和其它物质一起生产电层压材料、玻璃层压材料和涂料。在典型的方法中,将在有机溶剂如酮中的环氧树脂溶液,和环氧树脂固化剂如双氰胺的溶液混合来生产作各种应用的环氧树脂组合物。在使用已知的双氰胺溶剂,如丙二醇一甲醚时,难以在混合双氰胺溶液与环氧树脂溶液后将双氰胺保存在溶液中。Known uses of epoxy resins are among other substances to produce electrical laminates, glass laminates and coatings. In a typical method, an epoxy resin solution in an organic solvent, such as ketone, and a solution of an epoxy resin curing agent, such as dicyandiamide, are mixed to produce epoxy resin compositions for various applications. When using known dicyandiamide solvents such as propylene glycol monomethyl ether, it is difficult to keep dicyandiamide in solution after mixing the dicyandiamide solution with the epoxy resin solution.

因此,本发明的优选的目的在于发现新的溶剂,在此溶剂中,环氧树脂固化剂如双氰胺即使在固化剂溶液与环氧树脂溶液混合后仍能充分地溶解。It is therefore a preferred object of the present invention to find new solvents in which epoxy resin curing agents such as dicyandiamide are sufficiently soluble even after the curing agent solution is mixed with the epoxy resin solution.

*含有D.E.R.592 A80(商标)而不是D.E.R.539 EK80(商标) * Contains DER592 A80(TM) instead of DER539 EK80(TM)

实施例10-13、19和20的组合物都与环氧树脂相容,也就是说,即使在不存在二甲基甲酰胺的情况下,这些配方也是澄清和均匀的,其中二甲基甲酰胺根据上述的EU标准归类为有害或有毒的物质。The compositions of Examples 10-13, 19 and 20 are all compatible with epoxy resins, that is, the formulations are clear and homogeneous even in the absence of dimethylformamide, in which dimethylformamide Amides are classified as hazardous or toxic substances according to the aforementioned EU standards.

实施例9和10之间的比较说明,如果该溶剂组合物含有碳酸异丙烯酯的话,在本发明溶剂组合物中包含第三组分c)如水是有利的。实施例11和12说明,如果该溶剂组合物含有碳酸亚乙酯的话,该组合物在存在或不存在组分c)的情况下都与环氧树脂相容。The comparison between Examples 9 and 10 shows that it is advantageous to include a third component c) such as water in the solvent composition of the invention if the solvent composition contains propylene carbonate. Examples 11 and 12 illustrate that if the solvent composition contains ethylene carbonate, the composition is compatible with epoxy resins in the presence or absence of component c).

实施例14-18说明,如果将环氧树脂溶于甲乙酮,则最好保持水含量在更优选或最优选的范围内,即2-15%,最优选5-12%,以丙二醇一甲醚(组分a)、碳酸异丙烯酯(组分b)和水(组分c)的总重量为基准。对比例D-M和P的组合物要么与环氧树脂不相容,要么含有二甲基甲酰胺,而二甲基甲酰胺根据上述的EU标准归类为有害或有毒的物质。Examples 14-18 illustrate that if the epoxy resin is dissolved in methyl ethyl ketone, it is best to keep the water content in the more preferred or most preferred range, i.e. 2-15%, most preferably 5-12%, with propylene glycol monomethyl ether (component a), propylene carbonate (component b) and water (component c) based on the total weight. The compositions of comparative examples D-M and P are either incompatible with epoxy resins or contain dimethylformamide which is classified as a hazardous or toxic substance according to the aforementioned EU standards.

对比例O和P的组合物对所选择的环氧树脂的变化是敏感的。虽然对比例O的组合物与D.E.R.539 EK80(商标)环氧树脂是相容的,但对应的对比例P的组合物与D.E.R.592 A80环氧树脂不相容。实施例19和20之间的比较说明,本发明溶剂组合物,特别是包含丙二醇一甲醚、碳酸异丙烯酯和水的溶剂组合物与两种不同类型的环氧树脂相容。The compositions of Comparative Examples O and P are sensitive to changes in the epoxy resin chosen. While the composition of Comparative Example O was compatible with D.E.R. 539 EK80 (trade mark) epoxy resin, the corresponding composition of Comparative Example P was incompatible with D.E.R. 592 A80 epoxy resin. A comparison between Examples 19 and 20 demonstrates that the solvent compositions of the present invention, particularly those comprising propylene glycol monomethyl ether, propylene carbonate and water, are compatible with two different types of epoxy resins.
