Novel thermostable epoxy resin coatings based on organosilanes and silicones

Abstract

Some thermally stable epoxy coatings have been developed using functional aminosl.ilanes viz, N‐[3‐(trimethoxysilyl) propyl] ethylenediamine and copolymer of aminopropylmethyl dimethylsiloxane in different ratio. It has been observed that use of silicon compounds invariably enhances the thermal stabililty, chemical resistance and corrosion resistance of epoxy coating. It has also been observed that silane bearing triethoxy group gave better adherence properities whereas silicone gave better thermal stability. The degradation kinetics showed that the reactions were of first order.
