  • Publication number: 20100143604
    Abstract: A latent curing agent (30) of the present invention includes a core member (31) and a capsule (37) covering up the surface of the core member (31). The core member (31) includes a secondary particle (32) and a curing agent (35) retained in a gap (38) of the secondary particle (32). The curing agent (35) is liquid at ambient temperature. When the capsule (37) is destructed so that the curing agent (35) is emitted into an adhesive, the curing agent (35) is mixed with other ingredients in the adhesive. A metal alcoholate which is liquid at ambient temperature or a metal chelate which is liquid at ambient temperature is used as the curing agent (35), while a silane coupling agent is added to the adhesive. A reaction takes place between the curing agent (35) and the silane coupling agent to yield cations. By these cations, the epoxy resin undergoes cation in polymerization.

  • Publication number: 20090177019
    Abstract: Provided is a method for production of adamantane which enables producing a high-purity adamantane at low cost and with high efficiency by using effectively trimethylenenorbornane contained in a heavy raffinate heavy and having conventionally been no use other than fuels and the like, and which enables alleviating poisoning of a catalyst used in isomerization and corrosion of devices, whereby an industrially advantageous adamantane can be produced. In addition, the process for producing adamantane including an isomerization process of isomerizing trimethylenenorbornane contained in a raffinate obtained from a platfinate is characterized by including a water-washing removal process of removing sulfolane in a trimethylenenorbornane concentrate to be supplied in the isomerization process by water-washing.

  • Publication number: 20090131729
    Abstract: Provided is a method for production of adamantanes, in which, when a tricyclic saturated hydrocarbon compound having 10 or more carbon atoms is isomerized in the presence of a solid catalyst to give adamantanes, no solid matter derived from an oxygen-containing compound is formed or accumulated in the inlet or the bottom of an isomerization reactor by providing a pre-reactor in an isomerization step even if the oxygen-containing compound is present in a raw material to be supplied.

  • Patent number: 7491290
    Abstract: Disclosed is a two-component adhesive used for electrically and mechanically interconnecting two objects for bonding. The two-component adhesive is made up by first and second adhesive materials separately containing first and second curing agents, respectively. It is only after reaction of the first and second curing agents that the first and second resin components are polymerized. As long as the two adhesive materials are isolated from each other, the adhesive is not cured. In case a metal chelate or a metal alcoholate is used as the first curing agent and a silane coupling agent is used as the second curing agent, cations as a curing component are isolated to cause cationinc polymerization of the first and second resin components to allow for curing at a lower temperature in a shorter time than in case a conventional adhesive is used.
