Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a new structural class of phenalkamine, phenalkamine curing agent compositions, methods of making such phenalkamine, and methods of making such compositions. The phenalkamine curing agent compositions of the present invention can be prepared by reacting cardanol with an aldehyde compound and a mixture of methylene bridged poly(cycloaliphatic-aromatic)amines. These curing-agent compositions may be used to cure, harden, and/or crosslink an epoxy resin.
