Divanillin-based aromatic amines: synthesis and application as curing agents for bio-based epoxy thermosets
Abstract
New bio-based diamines were successfully synthesized from vanillin and fully characterized. These amines, methylated divanillylamine (MDVA) and 3,4-dimethoxydianiline (DMAN), were then used as curing agent with epoxy monomers. Epoxy thermosets obtained from these new bio-based amines exhibited promising thermomechanical properties in terms of glass transition temperature and char residue. These latter could be valuable alternative to conventional amine hardener.
