Abstract
A new bifunctional epoxy resin was synthesized by the reaction of replacing the hydrogen atom of amino groups from 4,4-diaminodiphenylmethane and epichlorohydrin taken in a double excess in dichloroethane. In order to remove HCl formed during the synthesis, which can interact with the initial diamine, as well as with the oxirane rings of both epichlohydrin and the synthesized product, an excess of potassium carbonate was introduced into the reaction mixture. The structure of the synthesized epoxy resin - 4,4′-methylenebis (N- (oxiran-2-ylmethyl) aniline) was characterized and proved by the methods of FTIR spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance and elemental analysis. The kinetic parameters of the synthesized resin were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry. Using the Kissinger method, the activation energy of the self-curing reaction was calculated, the value of which was 1.139 kJ / mol. Such a low activation energy of epoxy resin allows to cure at low temperatures, but shortens the storage time. Two curing modes were studied: 1 mode - 10 hours at 150 ° C, 2 step mode - 10 hours at 150 ° C + 3 hours of postcuring at 180 ° C.
