Open full text 6 citations

Abstract

The phase inversion process is a kind of efficient technology of emulsifying, it make its emulsifying ability to maximize by the means of control the factors of the HLB, the concentration of emulsifier, the ratio of emulsifier and oil and the temperature of emulsify. In this paper, the epoxy resin E-44 and polyethylene glycol used as materials, potassium persulfate as the catalytic agent, then we obtained the waterborne epoxy resin emulsion. The synthetic conditions of emulsifier, the mechanical stability and water-solubility of the emulsion were researched. Then the optimal amount of the emulsifier was determined and the modified emulsion was characterized, the particle size and viscosity were tested at the same time.
