    Abstract: A latent epoxy resin curing agent is provided which can be manufactured without using an amphiphilic polymer compound requiring a painful trial and error selection process, exhibits excellent solvent resistance and low-temperature fast-curing ability, and contains an imidazole-based compound as a main component. In the latent epoxy resin curing agent containing the imidazole-based compound as a main component, the adduct particles of the epoxy-based compound and the imidazole-based compound are coated with an ethyl cellulose film, and the surface thereof is crosslinked with a polyfunctional isocyanate compound. The epoxy-based compound, the imidazole-based compound, and ethyl cellulose are dissolved in a predetermined saturated hydrocarbon-based solvent under stirring and heating. Then, the epoxy-based compound and the imidazole-based compound are subjected to adduct reaction to obtain a slurry of the adduct.

  • Patent number: 7432387
    Abstract: [Problems] It is to provide a process by which an organosilicon compound having a hexafluorocarbinol group can be easily produced on an industrial scale without via a complicated production step. [Means for solving problems] The following compound represented by the formula (1) and a trialkoxysilane are subjected to hydrosilylation to obtain a compound represented by the formula (2). (In the formula, R is an alkoxy group having carbon atoms from 1 to 3.) [Effects] Since the compound obtained in the present invention is a trifunctional alkoxysilane, use of a crosslinking reaction leads to a silicone resin and a silsesquioxane. The hexafluorocarbinol group functions as an excellent alkaline water-soluble group.
