Abstract
Adhesion of organic polymer-based compositions to substrate surfaces is enhanced by incorporating into such organic polymer-based compositions an effective amount of an admixture comprising at least one phenolic novolak resin, at least one polyepoxide, and an effective amount of at least one crosslinking agent. The organic polymer-based compositions containing the described admixtures are bonded to metal and other substrates over a wide temperature range, including temperatures substantially below the activation temperatures at which prior art adhesion promoters are most effective.
Claims5
A two-package adhesion promoting composition comprising
- a first pack consisting essentially of triglycidyl isocyanurate and at least one crosslinking agent comprising at least one methylene donor;
- and
- a second pack consisting essentially of at least one methylene acceptor selected from the group consisting of monomeric polyhydric phenols, monomeric monohydric alkyl phenols and mixtures thereof;
- wherein the amount of triglycidyl isocyanurate is in the range from about 0.2 to about 8 parts by weight per part by weight of methylene acceptor and said methylene donor is present in at least a stoichiometric amount, based on methylene acceptor.
