W. Lenhard et al., AMINO RESIN CURABLE WATER REDUCIBLE EPOXY SYSTEMS FOR AUTOMOTIVE REFINISHING PAINTS, Progress in organic coatings, 32(1-4), 1997, pp. 127-130
The requirements on primer surfacers for application in vehicle refini
sh are described, and a waterborne amine curable epoxy system is intro
duced which meets these demands. The technical properties of this mate
rial are dependent on the time which passes between mixing and applica
tion. The impact of the aforementioned time on curing behaviour and fi
lm properties is followed by using dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA).
The results indicate that correlations exist between several propertie
s of the primer surfacer and its storage modulus E'. (C) 1997 Elsevier
