Abstract:
A curable composition, comprisinga) 10 to 90% by weight of at least one, optionally water-dilutable, water-emulsifiable or water-dispersible, epoxy resin having more than one epoxy group in the molecule;b) 90 to 10% by weight of at least one polyamine adduct which predominantly corresponds to the formula I and which is prepared from an adduct of formula A and a polyamine of formula XII, ##STR9##wherein the sum of the percentages by weight of components a) and b) is 100%;c) optionally, at least one further aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic/aliphatic, aromatic or heteroaromatic mono- or polyamine which is unmodified or modified by adduction; and,d) optionally, at least one customary additive selected from the group consisting of extenders, fillers, reinforcing agents, pigments, pigment pastes, colourants, flame retardants, thixotropic agents, flow control agents, demoulding agents, antifoams, reactive thinners, plasticisers, antioxidants and light stabilisers;wherein in formulae I, A and XIIR.sup.1 is independently of one another --H or --CH.sub.3,R.sup.2 is --H or C.sub.1 -C.sub.12 alkyl, andp is 1, 2 or 3,the radicals B are each independently of one another a group of formulae II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX and X: ##STR10##whereinX is >N-- or --O--,R is --H or --CH.sub.3, andq is an integer from 0 to 10,m in formulae I and A, depending on the functionality of unit B, is an integer from 1 to 11, andn is an integer from 2 to 100, andr in formulae VI and VII is an integer from 2 to 20.
