Kinetics, thermodynamics and mechanism of reactions of epoxy oligomers with amines

In this review, modern interpretations of the kinetics, thermodynamics and mechanisms of curing of epoxy oligomers with primary, secondary, and tertiary amines and their mixtures, as well as the structure of the resulting polymers are discussed. The effect of the structure of the reagents on their reactivity is analyzed. Kinetic peculiarities of the deep stages of the curing process are emphasized Problems to be solved in the future are formulated.
