Abstract:
A pourable curable composition which comprises the product obtained by mixing:(a) a liquid epoxy resin based on a polyglycidyl ether of a polyhydric alcohol or phenol selected from the group consisting of 2,2-bis-4-hydroxyphenylpropane (Bisphenol A), bis-4-hydroxyphenylpropane (Bisphenol F), a phenol-formaldehyde novolak and a cresol-formaldehyde novolak and mixtures thereof, which resin contains 1 to 20% by weight, based on the weight of the epoxy resin, of hydrophilic fumed silica to induce thixotropy; with(b) a hardener composition which contains a tertiary amine compound selected from the group consisting of N,N,N',N'-tertamethylhaxane-1,6-diamine, diazabicyclooctane, N,N-dimethylcyclohexylamine, tris-N,N-dimethylaminomethylphenol, N,N-dimethylamino-4-pyridine, N,N-diemthylaminoamino-4-toluidine, N,N-diethyl-1,3-propanediamine, N,N-dimethylpropyleneteiamine, tris-2,4,6-dimethylaminomethylphenol and tri-n-butylamine,wherein the amount of the tertiary amine compound is sufficient to let the curable composition develop a flowing consistency after mixing.
