Cyclic amidines useful as catalysts in the hardening of epoxide resins

摘要

Cyclic amidines which are modified by the incorporation of additional polar groups, may be used as catalysts for hardening heat-curable resin compositions comprising polyepoxides and optionally carboxyl group-containing polymers. Such amidine catalysts yield a high reactivity, an excellent storage stability and result in elastic coatings which show a high gloss and a good resistance to solvents.
