Abstract
Universal adhesion promoters, capable of performing on different substrates of varying surface energies have been synthesised from 1,4 butane diol diglycidyl ether and monofunctional amines (MFA) like dopamine (DA) and 2-phenylethyl amine. The adhesion promotion efficiency of these primers was investigated in combination with an epoxy-amine based adhesive system. MFA incorporated primer formulations, EADD and EADP showed superior adhesion over both metallic (steel, Cu and Al substrates) as well as polymeric substrates (HDPE and PTFE). A universal priming concept was derived based on the synthesised monofunctional amine (MFA) incorporated epoxy primers. MFA based primers facilitated 1.2–1.5 fold enhancement in adhesive strength on HDPE and PTFE and 2–2.7 fold higher strength for Al, Cu and Steel compared to their uncoated couterparts. Epoxy amine primers without MFA exhibited lower adhesive strength on metallic and polymeric substrates, proving their efficacy. Mechanism of higher adhesion promoting efficiency of catechol and noncatechol based MFA primers were investigated using experimental and computational studies. Noncatechol amine based primer, EADP showed significantly higher strength on metallic and nonmetallic substrates compared to catechol based MFA. This study offers a fast, neutral and scalable coating strategy, suitable for industrial applications.
