Characteristics and development trend of various curing agents
panimula
Sa industriya ng patong, curing agent is an indispensable element, which enables the coating to cure into film by triggering the cross-linking reaction in the linear resin. This process not only gives the paint excellent properties, such as improving the film’s high temperature resistance, paglaban sa tubig, solvent resistance, wear resistance and scratch resistance, but also plays a key role in different application scenarios.
Classification and characteristics of curing agent
Sa larangan ng coatings, epoxy resins are a common type of resin, and curing agents are mainly divided into four categories: single polyamines, mixed polyamines, modified polyamines and eutectic mixed polyamines.
1. Single polyamine
Fatty amines, alicyclic amines, aromatic amines and polyamides * : Kabilang sa mga ito, fatty amines and polyamides can undergo curing reactions at room temperature, while aromatic amines curing agents need to be heated. Curing products of aromatic amine curing agents usually have higher temperature resistance, mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. Gayunpaman, fatty amine curing agents may be more toxic and irritating, while aromatic amine curing agents require higher curing temperatures.

2. Modified polyamines
Through chemical modification, the latent curing agent * is obtained: na ang ibig sabihin ay, the curing agent with a long application period at room temperature. Halimbawa na lang, the modification of curing agents such as diethylenetriamine and triethylenetetramine can reduce their curing activity and improve their storage stability.
3. Eutectic mixed polyamines
Stored for a long time at room temperature, triggering the curing process when heated * : For scenarios requiring special applications, eutectic hardeners have unique advantages.
4. Latent curing agent
Able to maintain a long application period at room temperature, but quickly trigger a curing reaction when heated * : has great potential in some applications to provide rapid curing while extending the storage life of the product.
The importance of curing agents
Curing agents play a key role in the coating industry. By selecting the right curing agent, manufacturers are able to adjust the performance of the paint film to meet specific needs and adapt to different application scenarios. In the pursuit of scientific and technological progress and environmental performance, the coating industry will continue to devote itself to the development of new curing agents to provide the market with higher performance coating products.
