Patent ID: 10081737

Abstract:
The curing agent for coatings includes at least 1,3,5-triglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate and 1,3,5-diglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate. To produce the curing agent, 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid reacts with a base and chloropropene to produce triallyl benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate. Then the triallyl benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate reacts with a surfactant, hydrogen peroxide and a catalyst to produce 1,3,5-triglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate and/or 1,3,5-diglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate. The 1,3,5-triglycidyl benzenetricarboxylate can be applied to coatings as a curing agent.
