An object of the present invention is to provide an epoxy amine adduct, a curing catalyst, a resin composition, a sealing material, an adhesive agent, and a cured product, which have good characteristics. There is prepared an epoxy amine adduct in which a value of (melting onset temperature at a temperature increasing rate of 50° C./min)/(melting onset temperature at a temperature increasing rate of 10° C./min) in differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is 1.00 or more and 1.10 or less. There are prepared a curing catalyst for epoxy resin containing the epoxy amine adduct, a resin composition containing the curing catalyst, a sealing material or an adhesive agent each containing the resin composition, and a cured product obtained by curing the resin composition.

The invention discloses a frame-sealing agent, a display panel and a display device. The frame-sealing agent comprises an acrylic resin, an epoxy resin, a thermal curing agent and an ultraviolet photoinitiator, wherein the frame-sealing agent further comprises a compound which decomposes to produce a gas under a condition of light irradiation, heating or high temperature. In the invention, by providing a compound that decomposes to produce a gas under a condition of light irradiation, heating or high temperature, when the frame-sealing agent is cured, the compound decomposes to produce a gas with the effect of light irradiation, heating or high temperature. The light leak of the display screen at the position of backlight is obstructed by the gas. Additionally, the pressure of the gas can retard the diffusion of liquid crystal molecules, so that the contamination of the liquid crystal caused by the too early contact between the liquid crystal and the frame-sealing agent and the relevant display badness are avoided.

A material for gaskets is disclosed, wherein a metal surface coating layer, a primer layer and a rubber layer are formed, or a metal surface coating layer and a rubber layer are formed on at least a part of one side or both sides of a substrate formed of a metal plate sequentially from the metal plate side, and the metal surface coating layer comprises (A) one or more carbonates selected from the group consisting of Mg carbonate, Co carbonate, Zr carbonate, Mn carbonate, Ni carbonate, and Cu carbonate and (B) one or more selected from the group consisting of silica, alumina, zirconia, and titania.

The present teachings generally provide a system comprising a pultruded profile and a two-part system with a first component including one or more epoxy resins and a second component including one or more phosphate esters such that mixing the first component and second component forms an activatable material that activates at a temperature of about 0° C. to about 50° C. The activatable material is extruded onto the pultruded profile such that residual heat from pultrusion in the pultruded profile activates the activatable material.
