Abstract: Mixed polycycloaliphatic amines (MPCA) and alkylates thereof (MPCA alkylates), methods for making mixed polycycloaliphatic MPCA amines and MPCA alkylates thereof, as well as polymeric compositions, such as spray-applied polyurea coating compositions, comprising said mixed amines MPCA and MPCA alkylates thereof are described herein. In one embodiment, the polymeric composition comprises an isocyanate component, and a resin component comprising an organic compound having the following Formula I: where R1, R2 and R3 are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group comprising from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aryl group comprising from 3 to 12 carbon atoms, an aralkyl group comprising from 3 to 12 carbon atoms and combinations thereof, provided that there is at least one alkyl group within Formula I, and X is a methylene bridged polycycloaliphatic amine (MPCA).

Abstract: The present invention provides curing agent compositions comprising alkylated polyalkylene polyamine compounds. Amine-epoxy compositions and articles produced from these amine-epoxy compositions are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention discloses both amine compositions and amine-epoxy compositions containing N,N?-dimethyl-meta-xylylenediamine. A novel process for producing amines such as N,N?-dimethyl-meta-xylylenediamine, and structurally similar amines, is also disclosed.

Abstract: An epoxy resin composition having a curing component and an epoxy component is disclosed. The curing component includes an amount of about 8% to about 70% by weight of the composition of a primary curing agent and about 0.001% to about 5% by weight of the composition of a secondary curing agent. The epoxy composition also includes about 30% to about 92% by weight of the composition of the epoxy component. A number of equivalents of reactive curative groups in the curing component is from about 0.50 to 0.98 times the number of epoxide equivalents present in the epoxy component. An epoxy product formed from the epoxy resin composition is also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention provides epoxy curing agent compositions comprising alkylated aminopropylated alkylenediamine compounds. Amine-epoxy compositions and articles produced from these amine-epoxy compositions are also disclosed.
