Abstract:
A reinforcing element for reinforcement in cavities of structural components including a substrate made of a plastics material, which is at least partially coated with a metal; and a foamable, thermosetting structural adhesive which is applied to the metal coating of the substrate; or a thermosetting structural adhesive which is applied to the metal coating of the substrate and is designed as a shape memory material.
Abstract:
Heat-curing epoxy resin compositions are characterized by high impact strength, good storage stability, and a low curing temperature. The epoxy resin compositions are suitable for use as a construction shell adhesive and for producing structural foams. They can already be cured in so-called bottom-baking conditions. Furthermore, it has been found that the use of an accelerator of the formula (Ia) or (Ib) results in an increase of the impact strength of heat-curing epoxy resin compositions.
Abstract:
In a reinforcing system for reinforcing a cavity of a structural element, a support element is connected to the structural element in the structural element for reinforcement purposes. The support element has channels, an adhesive is disposed in the cavity between the support element and the structural element, and the adhesive can be introduced into the cavity between the support element and the structural element by means of the channels.
Abstract:
A composition having at least one structural adhesive and at least one chemically crosslinked elastomer based on the silane-functional, non-polar polymer, said elastomer being provided in the form of a penetrating polymer network in the structural adhesive. Self-supporting adhesive bodies, particularly in the form of adhesive tapes, can be produced from such compositions and can be used for structural bonds and to reinforce metal structures.
Abstract:
What is described is a polymer which is a polyurethane polymer having blocked isocyanate groups or a reaction product of said polyurethane polymer with at least one epoxy resin, where the polyurethane polymer having blocked isocyanate groups is an addition product formed from at least one polyisocyanate and at least one polyester polyol, wherein the isocyanate groups of the addition product have been blocked by reaction with at least one aromatic compound having at least one hydroxyl group. Such a polymer is suitable as an impact modifier in epoxy resin compositions, especially when they are used as adhesives or structural foams. The polymer improves the corrosion resistance and vertical expansion of the epoxy resin composition.
