Abstract: An electromagnetic device is provided with a coil bobbin (1) supporting an excitation coil (5) and a U-shaped movable iron piece (2) whose one side (2a) is inserted in and fixed to a hollow section (1a) of the coil bobbin (1) in a state where it is held between a pair of iron cores (3) and (4). A remaining side (2b) of the U-shaped movable iron piece (2) is inserted in a through-hole section (1c) of the coil bobbin (1) and has a resilient characteristic that it is spaced away from the one side (2a). The top surface of each of rising sections (3a) and (3b) of the iron cores (3) and (4) is configured by bending the end of each of the rising sections (3a) and (3b) and is located to be opposite to the top of the remaining side (2b) at a preset distance away.

Abstract: An emulsifying epoxy resin composition having excellent emulsifiability and storage stability, which comprises a specific epoxy resin (I), an emulsifiable epoxy compound (II) prepared by reacting an urethane compound (II-1), prepared by the reaction of a polyalkylene polyether polyol compound (II-1-1) having a number average molecular weight of 200 to 12,000 and an ethylene oxide content of 80% by weight or above with an excess amount of a polyisocyanate compound (II-1-2), with a specific epoxy compound (II-2) and an alkylphenol ethoxylate (II-3) having a number average molecular weight of 300 to 5,000 at a specific ratio, and water (III). A curable composition having a high cure rate and the cured product obtained there from having excellent film strength, water resistance and so on, which comprises the above-described emulsifiable epoxy resin composition and an active organic amino compound (IV) is also within the scope of the present invention.

Abstract: A curable epoxy resin composition comprises (I) an epoxy resin and (II) a curing agent. It may comprise (III) another curing agent. It is preferable for it to comprise 25 to 95 wt.% of (I) and 5 to 45 wt.% of (II).1 an epoxy resin (I) represented by the general formula: ##STR1## wherein Z represents a group selected from among a hydrogen atom, a methyl group and an ethyl group, R represents a group selected from among a hydrogen atom and alkyl groups, and n represents a number of 0 to 1.6, and2 a curing agent comprising a polyamine reaction composition (II) obtained by reacting 1 mol of a phenol (II-1) having at least one unsubstituted reactive site in the aromatic nucleus with at least 1 mol of an aliphatic polyamine (II-2) and at least 1 mol of a carbonyl compound (II-3) having at least one carbonyl group in the molecule.

Abstract: An epoxy resin curing composition comprising a novel curing agent which is obtained by the amidation with elimination of alcohol between an adduct of a carboxyl-containing acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymer with an epoxidized fatty acid ester and an amide-forming nitrogenous compound. This composition exhibits improved adhesion involving peel strength to plastics, rubbers or flexible vinyl chloride resins and is excellent in mechanical strength and resistance to water and alkali and particularly to acid.

Abstract: A thermosetting epoxy resin composition of one pack type is provided which contains as indispensable constituents (I) an epoxy resin containing more than one adjacent epoxy groups on the average in the molecule and (II) a curing amount or curing-accelerating amount of a compound obtained by reacting (a) a specified amine/epoxy adduct with (b) phenolic resin(s) and/or polyhydric phenol compound(s) in a weight ratio of (a) to (b) of 1/0.1 to 1/0.8. The composition of the present invention has excellent storage stability and it is curable at a relatively low temperature to form a cured product having excellent mechanical strength, adhesiveness and water resistance.
