That's exceptionally strong (we do admit that the Izod Test is more reliable and less hazardous than the alligator test). But high impact strength is only one of the distinct advantages of N-Aminoethylpiperazine (AEP) as a curina aaent for epoxv resins. AEP is also great for room temperature curing. And it's fast—a gel time of less than ten minutes starting at room temperature. If you want even faster curing, add nonyl phenol. An equal amount brings gel time down to about four minutes. AEP is compatible with low-cost diluents such as coal tar and pine

oil . . . lets you reduce the overall cost OT tne epoxy system and still get good physical properties. Compressive strength, flexural properties and heat distortion temperature of AFP-nnrfiri resins are excellent. AEP s structure ana properties aiso suggest its use as an intermediate in corrosion inhibitors, emulsion breakers, asphalt additives, textiles and surfactants. Let us know your areas of interest for AEP. We'll bet an (imitation) alligator bag we can be helpful... Jefferson Chemical Company, Inc., Box 53300, Houston, Texas 77052.
