Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a diamine compound and a method for producing the same, and more particularly to a diamine compound useful as an additive used in combination with a monomer or curing agent that can constitute a polymer material such as a thermosetting resin or a thermoplastic resin, or the polymer material, and a method for producing the same. Background Art

[0002] Resin materials composed of polymers are used in a wide range of applications, such as coatings, building materials, flooring materials, civil engineering materials, electronic components, etc. The properties required for these applications are different, so there are many types of resin materials that meet the properties.

[0003] In particular, resin materials such as epoxy resin, polyimide, and polyamide-imide, whose main chains are composed of aromatic rings, have excellent mechanical and electrical properties, but on the other hand, they are hard and brittle, and generally, they are pointed out to lack impact resistance and toughness. Therefore, it is necessary to alleviate the brittleness according to the application, and various means have been proposed so far.

[0004] As one of such means, it is known that a flexible chain is introduced into the main chain of a polymer to impart flexibility, thereby modifying the polymer. As a method for introducing such a flexible chain, in the case of manufacturing, for example, a thermosetting resin, it is known to use a compound having a flexible chain (e.g., a polar group such as an ether group, an ester group, an amide group, an urethane group) as a main agent or a curing agent. Alternatively, in the case of manufacturing a thermoplastic resin, it is known that a compound having such a flexible chain can be used as a monomer of a raw material.

[0005] However, in these methods, compatibility and viscosity may be reduced, resulting in reduced curing properties, and the resulting cured product may have various properties other than flexibility changed, and other properties may be changed or reduced in an undesirable manner. This is believed to be caused by the polar groups introduced as flexible chains. Summary of the invention

[0131]

[0132] (Example 4: Preparation of Cured Epoxy Resin (E1))

[0133] An epoxy resin composition was prepared by mixing 10.0 g of bisphenol A epoxy resin (EPOMIC manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals, Inc., epoxy equivalent (hereinafter referred to as WPE) 188), 4.4 g of diamine 1b obtained in Example 1 as a curing agent (0.95 equivalent relative to WPE), and 0.1 g (1 phr) of N,N-dimethylbenzylamine as a curing accelerator. Next, 10 g of the resin composition was weighed in a heat-resistant container, heated at 70°C for 15 hours, and heated at 120°C for 1 hour to obtain an epoxy resin cured product (E1). For the obtained epoxy resin cured product (E1), a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) (DSC-60 manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation) was used to keep the sample at -50°C for 10 minutes, and then heated to 200°C at a heating rate of 10°C per minute, thereby measuring the glass transition temperature (Tg) from the heat change with respect to the heating. In order to measure the gelation rate of the epoxy resin cured product (E1), 5 g of the sample was subjected to Soxhlet extraction using acetone for 5 hours. The gelation rate of the resin was measured by the ratio of the mass of the raw material before extraction to the mass of the extract. The obtained results are shown in Table 4.

[0134] (Example 5: Preparation of Cured Epoxy Resin (E2))

[0135] The epoxy resin cured product (E2) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the diamine 2b (4.2 g) prepared in Example 2 was used instead of the diamine 1b as the curing agent. The DSC analysis and gelation rate measurement of the obtained epoxy resin cured product (E2) were performed in the same manner as in Example 1. The obtained results are shown in Table 4.

[0136] (Example 6: Preparation of Cured Epoxy Resin (E3))

[0138] (Comparative Example 1: Preparation of Cured Epoxy Resin (CE1))

[0139] A cured epoxy resin (CE1) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that tetraethylenepentamine (1.4 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent. DSC analysis and gelation rate measurement of the cured epoxy resin (CE1) were performed in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0140] (Comparative Example 2: Preparation of Cured Epoxy Resin (CE2))

[0141] A cured epoxy resin (CE2) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that triethylenetetramine (1.2 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent. DSC analysis and gelation rate measurement of the obtained cured epoxy resin (CE2) were performed in the same manner as in Example 1. The obtained results are shown in Table 4.

[0142] (Comparative Example 3: Preparation of Cured Epoxy Resin (CE3))

[0143] A cured epoxy resin (CE3) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that hexamethylenediamine (1.5 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent. DSC analysis and gelation rate measurement of the cured epoxy resin (CE3) were performed in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0144] (Comparative Example 4: Preparation of Cured Epoxy Resin (CE4))

[0145] A cured epoxy resin (CE4) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that 1,10-decanediamine (2.1 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent. DSC analysis and gelation rate measurement of the obtained cured epoxy resin (CE4) were performed in the same manner as in Example 1. The obtained results are shown in Table 4.

[0146] (Comparative Example 5: Preparation of Cured Epoxy Resin (CE5))

[0147] A cured epoxy resin (CE5) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1 except that a polyether diamine (Baxxodure EC302 manufactured by Mitsui Chemicals Fine Co., Ltd.; average molecular weight 400) (5.6 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent. DSC analysis of the cured epoxy resin (CE5) and measurement of the gelation rate were performed in the same manner as in Example 1. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0148] [Table 4]

[0149]

[0150] As shown in Table 4, the epoxy resin cured products (E1) to (E3) prepared in Examples 4 to 6 have lower Tg than the epoxy resin cured products (CE1) and (CE2) of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 using conventional amine curing agents, and have a lower Tg than the epoxy resin cured product (CE3) of Comparative Example 3 using C6 diamine and the epoxy resin cured product (CE4) of Comparative Example 4 using C6 diamine. 10 The epoxy resin cured product (E1) to (E3) of Examples 1 to 3 using diamine 1b, 2b or 3 consisting only of amino groups and carbon chains and the epoxy resin cured product (CE5) of Comparative Example 5 using a curing agent containing a polyether chain have approximately the same Tg and gelation rate.

[0151] (Example 7: Evaluation of curability of epoxy resin composition (EC1))

[0152] Using the diamine 1b obtained in Example 1 as a curing agent, 50 g of an epoxy resin composition (EC1) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 and placed in a glass sample tube. It was immersed in an oil bath at 70°C, and the temperature of the resin was plotted at regular intervals (every 20 seconds) as a sign of exothermic curing. The gel point, gel time, maximum exothermic point, minimum curing time and pot life were obtained from the obtained exothermic curing curve. It should be noted that the pot life is calculated as a value 0.8 times (×0.8) the gel time. The obtained results are shown in Table 5.

[0153] (Example 8: Evaluation of curability of epoxy resin composition (EC2))

[0154] An epoxy resin composition (EC2) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 except that diamine 2b (21.0 g) prepared in Example 2 was used instead of diamine 1b as a curing agent, and the gelling point, gelling time, maximum exothermic point, minimum curing time and pot life were obtained from the exothermic curing curve of the resin composition in the same manner as in Example 4. The obtained results are shown in Table 5.

[0155] (Example 9: Evaluation of curability of epoxy resin composition (EC3))

[0156] An epoxy resin composition (EC3) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 except that diamine 1b was used instead of diamine 3 (24.5 g) prepared in Example 3 as a curing agent, and the gelling point, gelling time, maximum exothermic point, minimum curing time and pot life were obtained from the exothermic curing curve of the resin composition in the same manner as in Example 4. The obtained results are shown in Table 5.

[0157] (Comparative Example 6: Evaluation of Curability of Epoxy Resin Composition (CC1))

[0158] The epoxy resin composition (CC1) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 except that tetraethylenepentamine (7.0 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent, and the gelling point, gelling time, maximum exothermic point, minimum curing time and pot life were obtained from the exothermic curing curve of the resin composition in the same manner as in Example 4. The obtained results are shown in Table 5.

[0159] (Comparative Example 7: Evaluation of Curability of Epoxy Resin Composition (CC2))

[0160] The epoxy resin composition (CC2) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 except that triethylenetetramine (6.0 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent, and the gelling point, gelling time, maximum exothermic point, minimum curing time and pot life were obtained from the exothermic curing curve of the resin composition in the same manner as in Example 4. The obtained results are shown in Table 5.

[0161] (Comparative Example 8: Evaluation of Curability of Epoxy Resin Composition (CC3))

[0162] The epoxy resin composition (CC3) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 except that hexamethylenediamine (7.5 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent, and the gelling point, gelling time, maximum exothermic point, minimum curing time and pot life were obtained from the exothermic curing curve of the resin composition in the same manner as in Example 4. The obtained results are shown in Table 5.

[0163] (Comparative Example 9: Evaluation of Curability of Epoxy Resin Composition (CC4))

[0164] An epoxy resin composition (CC4) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 except that 1,10-decanediamine (10.5 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent, and the gelling point, gelling time, maximum exothermic point, minimum curing time and pot life were obtained from the exothermic curing curve of the resin composition in the same manner as in Example 4. The obtained results are shown in Table 5.

[0165] (Comparative Example 10: Evaluation 1 of curability of epoxy resin composition (CC5))

[0166] An epoxy resin composition (CC5) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 except that polyether diamine (28.0 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent, and an exothermic curing curve of the resin composition was attempted in the same manner as in Example 4. However, after the resin temperature reached 70°C, which was the same temperature as the oil bath temperature, no heat was generated even after 30 minutes had passed, indicating that the curability of the composition (CC5) was significantly low.

[0167] (Comparative Example 11: Evaluation 2 of curability of epoxy resin composition (CC5))

[0168] The epoxy resin composition (CC5) was prepared in the same manner as in Example 4 except that polyether diamine (28.0 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the curing agent, and the gelling point, gelling time, maximum exothermic point, minimum curing time and pot life were obtained from the exothermic curing curve of the resin composition in the same manner as in Example 4 except that the oil bath temperature was set to 120°C. The obtained results are shown in Table 5.

[0169] [Table 5]

[0170]

[0171] As shown in Table 5, the epoxy resin compositions (EC1) to (EC3) prepared in Examples 7 to 9 have a longer gelling time and a longer minimum curing time, and therefore have a characteristic of curing more slowly than the epoxy resin compositions (CC1) to (CC6) of Comparative Examples 6 to 11. Regarding the pot life during curing, the epoxy resin compositions (EC1) to (EC3) prepared in Examples 7 to 9 are about 2 to 3 times longer than the epoxy resin compositions (CC1) to (CC6) of Comparative Examples 6 to 11. In addition, when focusing on the gelling temperature and the maximum exothermic point, the heat generation of the epoxy resin compositions (EC1) to (EC3) prepared in Examples 7 to 9 is similar to that of the epoxy resin compositions (CC1) to (CC6) of Comparative Examples 6 to 11. As can be seen from the results of Comparative Examples 10 and 11, the polyether diamine, which is a highly reactive flexibility-imparting agent, has a low reactivity and therefore has poor curability at low temperatures. That is, the diamines 1b, 2b and 3 used in the epoxy resin compositions (EC1) to (EC3) prepared in Examples 7 to 9 have a longer pot life than the curing agents of the epoxy resin compositions (CC1) to (CC6) of Comparative Examples 6 to 11, which are known as commercially available amine-based curing agents, and have better low-temperature curing properties than other flexibility-imparting agents.

[0172] (Example 10: Water resistance of cured epoxy resin (E1))

[0173] The epoxy resin cured product (E1) prepared in Example 4 (containing diamine 1b as a curing agent) was put into boiling water and boiled for 1 hour. The mass of the resin before the addition and the mass of the resin after boiling for 1 hour (it should be noted that the water attached to the surface was removed) were measured and the following formula was used:

[0174] Water absorption rate (%) = (mass of resin after boiling - mass of resin before addition) / (mass of resin before addition) × 100

[0175] The water absorption rate (%) of the epoxy resin cured material (E1) was calculated and evaluated as the water resistance of the epoxy resin cured material (E1).

[0176] (Example 11: Water resistance of cured epoxy resin (E2))

[0177] The cured epoxy resin (E2) prepared in Example 5 (containing diamine 2b as a curing agent) was used instead of the cured epoxy resin (E1). The cured epoxy resin (E2) was boiled in the same manner as in Example 10, and the water absorption (%) of the cured epoxy resin (E2) was calculated. The obtained results are shown in Table 6.

[0178] (Example 12: Water resistance of cured epoxy resin (E3))

[0179] The cured epoxy resin (E3) prepared in Example 6 (containing diamine 3 as a curing agent) was used instead of the cured epoxy resin (E1). The cured epoxy resin (E3) was boiled in the same manner as in Example 10, and the water absorption (%) of the cured epoxy resin (E3) was calculated. The obtained results are shown in Table 6.

[0180] (Comparative Example 12: Water resistance of cured epoxy resin (CE1))

[0181] The cured epoxy resin (CE1) prepared in Comparative Example 1 (containing tetraethylenepentamine as a curing agent) was used instead of the cured epoxy resin (E1). The cured epoxy resin (CE1) was boiled in the same manner as in Example 10, and the water absorption (%) of the cured epoxy resin (CE1) was calculated. The obtained results are shown in Table 6.

[0182] (Comparative Example 13: Water resistance of epoxy resin cured product (CE5))

[0183] The cured epoxy resin (CE5) prepared in Comparative Example 5 (containing polyether diamine as a curing agent) was used instead of the cured epoxy resin (E1). The cured epoxy resin (CE5) was boiled in the same manner as in Example 10, and the water absorption (%) of the cured epoxy resin (CE5) was calculated. The obtained results are shown in Table 6.

[0184] [Table 6]

[0185]

[0186] As shown in Table 6, the epoxy resin cured products (E1) to (E3) evaluated in Examples 10 to 12 (containing diamine 1b, 2b or 3 as a curing agent) and the epoxy resin cured product (CE1) (containing tetraethylenepentamine as a curing agent) equivalent to a conventional product evaluated in Comparative Example 12 all had a water absorption rate of 0%, and had sufficient water resistance. In contrast, the epoxy resin cured product (CE5) evaluated in Comparative Example 13, which contained a polyether diamine (molecular weight 400) known as a flexibility imparting agent as a curing agent, showed a water absorption rate of about 1%. That is, while polyether diamine imparts flexibility, it is accompanied by a decrease in water resistance in exchange, whereas the epoxy resin cured products (E1) to (E3) using diamine 1b, 2b or 3 (produced in Examples 4 to 6) can impart flexibility without impairing water resistance.

[0187] (Example 13: Preparation of bismaleimide prepolymer (EM1))

[0188] Into a 500 mL four-necked flask equipped with a thermometer, a stirrer, and a dropping funnel, 21.5 g (60.1 mmol) of 4,4'-bismaleimide diphenylmethane and 200 mL of THF were added, and the diamine 1b (5.2 g) obtained in Example 1 (30.0 mmol equivalent in terms of amino group) was added dropwise as a modifier. The temperature was raised to 50°C while stirring, and the mixture was stirred for another 1.5 hours. Next, 3.1 g (30.1 mmol) of acetic anhydride was added, and the mixture was stirred for another hour. THF was removed under reduced pressure to obtain 27.6 g of bismaleimide prepolymer (EM1).

[0189] The obtained bismaleimide prepolymer (EM1) was analyzed by infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR: manufactured by JASCO Corporation), and a peak corresponding to an α,β-unsaturated bond (1606 cm -1 ) decreased, and a peak corresponding to the imide bond (1705 cm -1 and 1510cm -1 ), the peak corresponding to the amide bond (1636 cm -1 ).

[0190] In addition, 10 g of the bismaleimide prepolymer (EM1) was weighed in a heat-resistant container and heated at 170° C. for 2 hours to cure. The obtained cured product was kept at 0° C. for 10 minutes using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) (DSC-60 manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation), and then heated to 400° C. at a heating rate of 10° C. per minute, thereby measuring the glass transition temperature (Tg) from the heat change for the heating. The obtained results are shown in Table 7.

[0191] (Example 14: Preparation of bismaleimide prepolymer (EM2))

[0192] The same method as in Example 13 was used except that the diamine 2b (5.0 g) prepared in Example 2 was used instead of the diamine 1b as the modifier to obtain 27.8 g of a bismaleimide prepolymer (EM2). The DSC analysis of the cured product of the bismaleimide prepolymer (EM2) was performed in the same manner as in Example 13. The obtained results are shown in Table 7.

[0193] (Example 15: Preparation of bismaleimide prepolymer (EM3))

[0194] The same method as in Example 13 was used except that the diamine 3 (5.8 g) prepared in Example 3 was used instead of the diamine 1b as the modifier, to obtain 58.0 g of a bismaleimide prepolymer (EM3). The DSC analysis of the cured product of the bismaleimide prepolymer (EM3) was performed in the same manner as in Example 13. The obtained results are shown in Table 7.

[0195] (Comparative Example 14: Preparation of Bismaleimide Prepolymer (CM1))

[0196] The same method as in Example 13 was used except that hexamethylenediamine (1.8 g) was used instead of diamine 1b as the modifier to obtain 22.5 g of a bismaleimide prepolymer (CM1). The DSC analysis of the cured product of the bismaleimide prepolymer (CM1) was performed in the same manner as in Example 13. The obtained results are shown in Table 7.

[0197] (Comparative Example 15: DSC Analysis of 4,4'-Bismaleimidodiphenylmethane)

[0198] For comparison, 10 g of 4,4′-bismaleimidodiphenylmethane was cured alone without adding diamine 1b, and the cured product was analyzed by DSC in the same manner as in Example 13. The obtained results are shown in Table 7.

[0199] [Table 7]

[0200]

[0201] 1) Only 4,4-bismaleimide diphenylmethane was used

[0202] As shown in Table 7, the cured products of the bismaleimide prepolymers (EM1) to (EM3) prepared in Examples 13 to 15 have significantly lower Tg than the cured products of the bismaleimide prepolymer (CM1) prepared in Comparative Example 14 and 4,4'-bismaleimide diphenylmethane (modifier not added) of Comparative Example 15. The longer the carbon chain disposed between the two amino groups constituting the diamines 1b, 2b and 3 used as the modifier, the higher the flexibility can be imparted to the obtained cured product.

[0203] (Example 16: Preparation of polyamide 18,6)

[0204] In a 200 ml measuring cup, diamine 1b (3.8 g) (21.8 mmol equivalent in terms of amino groups), triethylamine (2.2 g) (21.8 mmol), and 50 mL of hexane were placed, and adipic acid dichloride (2.0 g) (10.9 mmol) dissolved in 50 mL of hexane was added while stirring to carry out solution polymerization. After continuous stirring for 30 minutes, the mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was washed with water and acetone and dried to obtain 2.3 g of polyamide 18,6.

[0205] The obtained polyamide 18,6 was analyzed by infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR: manufactured by JASCO Corporation), and a peak corresponding to an amide bond (1635 cm -1 、1542cm -1 ).

[0206] In addition, for this polyamide 18,6, a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) (DSC-60 manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation) was used to measure the glass transition temperature (Tg) from the heat change with respect to the temperature increase by heating the sample to 100°C at a temperature increase rate of 5°C per minute after the sample was kept at 0°C for 10 minutes. The obtained results are shown in Table 8.

[0207] (Example 17: Preparation of polyamide 20,6)

[0208] 2.5 g of polyamide 6.6 was obtained in the same manner as in Example 16 except that diamine 2b (3.6 g) prepared in Example 2 was used instead of diamine 1b. DSC analysis of the cured product of polyamide 20.6 was performed in the same manner as in Example 16. The obtained results are shown in Table 8.

[0209] (Example 18: Preparation of polyamide 22,6)

[0210] The same procedure as in Example 16 was repeated except that diamine 3 (3.8 g) prepared in Example 3 was used instead of diamine 1b to obtain 2.3 g of polyamide 6.6. The cured product of polyamide 22.6 was subjected to DSC analysis in the same manner as in Example 16. The results are shown in Table 8.

[0211] (Comparative Example 16: Preparation of Polyamide 2,6)

[0212] In a 200 ml measuring cup, ethylenediamine (0.7 g) (10.9 mmol), 49% sodium hydroxide (0.9 g) (10.9 mmol), and 50 mL of water were added, and adipic acid dichloride (2.0 g) (10.9 mmol) dissolved in 50 mL of hexane was added while stirring to perform interfacial polymerization. After continuous stirring for 30 minutes, the mixture was filtered, and the filtrate was washed with water and acetone and dried to obtain 0.9 g of polyamide 2,6. For this polyamide 2.6, DSC analysis of the cured product was performed in the same manner as in Example 16. The results obtained are shown in Table 8.

[0213] (Comparative Example 17: Preparation of Polyamide 6,6)

[0214] The same procedure as in Comparative Example 16 was followed except that hexamethylenediamine (1.3 g) was used instead of ethylenediamine to obtain 0.7 g of polyamide 6.6. The DSC analysis of the cured product of polyamide 6.6 was performed in the same manner as in Example 16. The obtained results are shown in Table 8.

[0215] [Table 8]

[0216]

[0217] As shown in Table 8, the polyamides (polyamide 18.6, polyamide 20.6, polyamide 22.6) prepared in Examples 16 to 18 all have significantly lower Tg than polyamide 2.6 prepared in Comparative Example 16 and polyamide 6.6 of Comparative Example 17. As in other Examples, the longer the carbon chain between the two amino groups of diamines 1b, 2b, and 3 used to constitute the polyamide, the higher the flexibility can be imparted to the obtained cured product.

[0218] (Example 19: Preparation of polyimide (ED1))

[0219] Pyromellitic anhydride (50.0 g) and cyclohexanone (200 ml) were placed in a reactor equipped with a stirrer, a water separator, a thermometer, and a nitrogen inlet tube, and heated to 60° C. Then, 40.0 g of the diamine 1b obtained in Example 1 dissolved in toluene (100 ml) was added, and imidization was carried out at 140° C. for 3 hours. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to obtain 80.1 g of a polyimide (ED1).

[0220] The polyimide (ED1) obtained above was confirmed to have a peak corresponding to an imide bond (1769 cm-1) by infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR: manufactured by JASCO Corporation). -1 ).

[0221] In addition, for this polyimide (ED1), a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) (DSC-60 manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation) was used to measure the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the sample from the heat change with respect to the temperature increase by heating the sample to 400°C at a temperature increase rate of 10°C per minute after the sample was kept at 0°C for 10 minutes. The obtained results are shown in Table 8.

[0222] (Example 20: Preparation of polyimide (ED2))

[0223] 78.9 g of polyimide (ED2) was obtained in the same manner as in Example 19 except that diamine 2b (37.9 g) prepared in Example 2 was used instead of diamine 1b. DSC analysis of the resin of this polyimide (ED2) was performed in the same manner as in Example 19. The obtained results are shown in Table 9.

[0224] (Example 21: Preparation of polyimide (ED3))

[0225] 81.3 g of polyimide (ED3) was obtained in the same manner as in Example 19 except that diamine 3 (44.3 g) prepared in Example 3 was used instead of diamine 1b. DSC analysis of the polyimide (ED3) was performed in the same manner as in Example 19. The obtained results are shown in Table 9.

[0226] (Comparative Example 18: Preparation of polyimide (CD1))

[0227] 69.7 g of polyimide (CD1) was obtained in the same manner as in Example 19 except that p-phenylenediamine (24.8 g) was used instead of diamine 1b. DSC analysis of the polyimide (CD1) was performed in the same manner as in Example 19. The obtained results are shown in Table 9.

[0228] (Comparative Example 19: Preparation of polyimide (CD2))

[0229] 70.9 g of a polyimide (CD2) was obtained in the same manner as in Example 19 except that hexamethylenediamine (26.6 g) was used instead of diamine 1b. DSC analysis of the polyimide (CD2) was performed in the same manner as in Example 19. The obtained results are shown in Table 9.

[0230] [Table 9]

[0231]

[0232] As shown in Table 9, although both Comparative Examples 18 and 19 use diamines having 6 carbon atoms, Comparative Example 19 using an aliphatic diamine has a lower Tg. In contrast, the diamines used in Examples 19 to 20 are aliphatic diamines having a larger number of carbon atoms, and have lower Tg than Comparative Example 19. Therefore, as in other Examples, the longer the carbon chain disposed between the two amino groups of diamines 1b, 2b, and 3 used to constitute the polyimide, the higher the flexibility can be imparted to the obtained polymer.

[0233] (summary)

[0234] To summarize the above-mentioned embodiments, it can be said that when the diamine compounds of the present invention (diamines 1b, 2b and 3) having a long carbon chain between two amino groups are used as resin additives, flexibility can be imparted to the resin (see, for example, Table 4, Table 7, Table 8 and Table 9). In addition, as can be seen from Table 2, although these diamine compounds are slightly slower in reactivity when used as epoxy resin curing agents compared to the commercially available amine curing agents used in Comparative Examples 6 to 11, it can be seen from Table 1 that their gelation rate is high and the curing reaction is fully carried out. Therefore, it is the most suitable material for adjusting the pot life. On the other hand, it can be seen that the polyether diamine (molecular weight 400) that can impart flexibility has obtained a flexibility imparting effect corresponding to the molecular weight (Table 1), but the reactivity is significantly deteriorated at low temperature (70°C), and the curing reaction can be carried out at 120°C (Table 2). In addition, it can be seen from Table 3 that the water resistance of the cured product using polyether diamine is poor, while the cured product using long-chain diamine can obtain water resistance equivalent to that of conventional amine curing agents without sacrificing water resistance. It can be seen from this that the diamine compound of the present invention is more useful than the polyether diamine of the current flexibility imparting agent.

[0235] (Example 22: Anticorrosion effect on metal products)

[0236] 50 mL of an aqueous solution containing 0.05 mass % of the diamine 1b obtained in Example 1 added to 10% hydrochloric acid as an anticorrosive agent was placed in a glass sample tube. A standard test plate (JIS G3141; manufactured by Japan Test Panel Co., Ltd.) that had been subjected to three times of grinding and toluene washing was immersed in the aqueous solution, and the test plate was heated at 60° C. for 1 hour to be corroded. The corroded test plate was washed with water and dried, and the corrosion rate (%) was calculated from the mass difference before and after immersion according to the following formula.

[0237] Corrosion rate (%) = (mass of the test plate before immersion - mass of the test plate after immersion) / (mass of the test plate before immersion) × 100

[0238] The obtained results are shown in Table 10.

[0239] (Comparative Example 20: Anticorrosion Effect on Metal Products)

[0240] The corrosion rate of the standard test plate was measured in the same manner as in Example 22 except that the anticorrosive agent (diamine 1b in Example 1) was not added. The obtained results are shown in Table 10.

[0241] (Comparative Example 21: Anticorrosion Effect on Metal Products)

[0242] The corrosion rate of the standard test plate was measured in the same manner as in Example 22, except that 0.05 mass % of dodecylamine was used instead of diamine 1b as the anticorrosive agent.

[0243] (Comparative Example 22: Anticorrosion Effect on Metal Products)

[0244] The corrosion rate of the standard test plate was measured in the same manner as in Example 22, except that 0.05 mass % of hexamethylenediamine was used instead of diamine 1b as the anticorrosive agent.

[0245] [Table 10]

[0246]

[0247] As shown in Table 10, the corrosion rate of the steel plate was the lowest when diamine 1b (isooctadecanediamine) of Example 22 was used, and the corrosion protection effect was high against the acidic aqueous solution. Such an anticorrosive agent is useful when performing cleaning treatments such as pickling, acid immersion, and etching of metals.

[0248] Industrial Applicability

[0249] According to the diamine compound of the present invention, various resins can be used to provide a resin combination with excellent flexibility.

And, when the diamine compound of the present invention is used as a cationic surfactant for lubricating rust preventives, high anticorrosion effects can be exerted for metal products. It can be seen from this that it is useful in metal processing fields, mechanical fields, etc.
