An amine-functional adduct from the reaction of at least one amine of the formula (I) with at least one novolak epoxy resin having an average functionality in the range from 2.5 to 4. The adduct is liquid at room temperature without thinners and without a large excess of amine. It is suitable as a curing agent for epoxy resin compositions, in which it permits good workability, rapid curing, high hydrophobicity, and a high crosslinking density. It is particularly suitable for coatings, in which it permits nice surfaces, good intercoat adhesion, high thermal shock resistance, and good protection against steel corrosion.
