  Dicyandiamide curing agent belongs to the heating curing class of latent curing agent, solid at room temperature, insoluble in epoxy resin, dispersed in epoxy resin in the form of microparticles, through the heating reaction, once heated to the melting point of the vicinity of the start of the dissolution and rapid reaction curing.   Curing reaction of dicyandiamide The molecular structure of dicyandiamide contains a cyano group (-CN) in addition to four active hydrogens. Cyano group can also participate in the curing reaction as a functional group. The curing reaction temperature of dicyandiamide is generally in the range of 160~180°C, and the curing reaction time is 20~60 minutes. For bisphenol A epoxy resin with 190 epoxy equivalents, the theoretical dosage of dicyandiamide curing agent (calculated on the basis of active hydrogen equivalents) is 11.1 parts, but the actual dosage is often in the range of 4-10 parts (based on 100 parts of the resin by mass). Dicyandiamide micropowder is dispersed into the epoxy resin, has a suitable storage period, is stable in storage, does not delaminate, and does not cure.   The fineness of the dicyandiamide particles may vary from product to product. The finer the dicyandiamide particles, the more obvious the performance advantage for curing reaction Ultra-fine dicyandiamide particles are easier to be evenly dispersed into the epoxy resin liquid. Ultra-fine dicyandiamide particles can be better mixed and dissolved in the epoxy resin liquid than ordinary dicyandiamide.   Application areas of dicyandiamide curing compounds Dicyandiamide epoxy resin has good adhesive property, heat resistance and stable storage period. Dicyandiamide epoxy resins can be widely used in powder coatings, carbon fibre prepregs, heat curable inks, laminates, single component adhesives and other applications. Typical applications: Preparation of prepregs for the manufacture of reinforced composites (wind energy, automotive, aerospace, marine engineering and other industries).

Epoxy resin adhesive is a reprocessing or modification of epoxy resin to make its performance parameters meet specific requirements. Usually epoxy resin adhesives are also used with curing agents and need to be mixed well to be fully cured. Generally, the epoxy resin adhesive is called A adhesive or main agent, and the curing agent is called B adhesive or curing agent(hardener).   Main properties of epoxy resin adhesives before curing Colur, viscosity, specific gravity, proportioning, gel time, open time, curing time, thixotropy (flow stopping), hardness, surface tension, etc.   Main properties of epoxy resin adhesive after curing Resistivity, proof voltage, water absorption, compressive strength, tensile strength, shear strength, peel strength, impact strength, heat deflection temperature under load, glass transition temperature, internal stress, chemical resistance, elongation, shrinkage coefficient, thermal conductivity, electrical conductivity, weathering resistance, aging resistance, dielectric constant.   Curing characteristics of epoxy resin adhesive Most of the epoxy resin adhesives are heat-setting adhesives. The higher the temperature of the epoxy resin adhesive, the faster the curing. The more the amount mixed at one time, the faster the curing. The curing process has exothermic phenomenon, etc.   Nanjing Yolatech provides all kinds of high purity and low chlorine epoxy resins, including Bisphenol A epoxy resin, Bisphenol F epoxy resin, Phenolic epoxy resin, Brominated epoxy resin, DOPO modified phenolic epoxy resin, MDI modified epoxy resin, DCPD epoxy resin, Multifunctional epoxy resin, Crystalline epoxy resin, HBPA epoxy resin and so on.

  Epoxy resins are commonly used as a matrix for materials such as adhesives, coatings and composites, and are widely used in construction, machinery, electrical and electronic, aerospace and other fields. A complete concept of epoxy resin constituents by four aspects of the composition. However, in practice, it is not necessary to have all four aspects of the components, but the resin composition must include the curing agent, which shows the importance of the curing agent. Epoxy resin components Epoxy resin Epoxy resin Main part，bisphenol A type and other types of epoxy resins Curing agent Reacts with epoxy resins to form three-dimensional network polymers Components for modification Plasticiser Gives epoxy components plasticity, but reduces its heat and chemical resistance Toughening agent Improved impact resistance without compromising other properties Filler Increase weight, improve curability, mechanical properties, such as calcium carbonate, mica, etc Flame retardant agent To make the epoxy Components with flame resistance, there are filler flame retardant and reactive flame retardant Components used to regulate fluidity Diluent Reduce components viscosity, including active and inactive diluents Thixotropic agent Imparts thixotropic properties to epoxy compositions, e.g. asbestos, silica micropowder Other components Pigments, solvents, defoamers, levelling agents, tackifiers, etc. The reason why epoxy resins are widely used is the result of the versatile co-ordination of these components. Especially the curing agent, once the epoxy resin is determined, the curing agent plays a decisive role in the processability of the epoxy resin composition and the final performance of the cured product.

From the research of curing agent to date, combined with the current situation at home and abroad, curing agent is currently facing some of the following challenges and changes. The development of high activity and excellent heat resistance curing agent. The use of modified polyether amine, aliphatic amine or mixed compound to prepare high activity and heat resistance curing system. Due to the traditional epoxy resin in the curing performance is poor, especially low toughness, brittle, greatly affecting its use, so improve the performance of epoxy resin needs to improve the toughness. Improve the curing environment, overcome the volatility and toxicity of amine curing agent, and promote the development of room temperature curing agent by modifying amine with physical or chemical method. Improve the adaptability and specialty of epoxy resin in special environments, to meet the special environments such as humid, underground low temperature environment or underwater of reservoir dam repair. Curing agent and curing technology matching, will be a variety of curing technology (heat curing, microwave curing, light curing) combined with the selection of the appropriate curing agent may be able to get a comprehensive performance of the curing product. Heating type latent curing agent has great potential, can continue to study the dicyandiamide and its modified products, organic acid hydrazide, boron - amine complex, imidazole, microcapsules and other latent curing agent.
