A method of producing aminourethane hardeners according to any one of claims 1, characterised in that one or more aminourethanes (A), possibly premixed with one or more amines (C), are reacted with one or more epoxide compounds (B), wherein a ratio of 2:1 to 20:1 is selected for the number of primary amino groups of (A) and (C) to the numbers of epoxide groups of (B).
- 8. Aminourethane hardeners according to claim 1, characterised in that aminourethanes (A) are used in admixture with further amines (C), wherein the ratio of the number of primary amino groups of (A) to the number of primary amino groups in (C) of 20:1 to 1:20.
- 9. Aqueous coating media containing
- one or more epoxide resins,
- one or more aminourethane hardeners according to claim 1,
- optionally one or more amine hardeners which are different from the one or more aminourethane hardeners, and
- optionally pigments, extenders, one or more organic solvents, water and/or customary additives.
- 10. A method of producing multi-layer coatings by applying a primer coat and optionally a primer surfacer coat to a substrate to be coated and optionally applying one or more further coating media coats, characterised in that a coat of a coating medium according to claim 9 is applied as at least one of the primer coat and/or primer surfacer coat.
- 11. A method for using the aminourethane hardeners according to claim 1, comprising adding one or more of said hardeners to an aqueous epoxide resin system.
- 12. A method according to claim 11, for using the aminourethane hardeners wherein the aqueous epoxide resin system comprises an aqueous epoxide-based coating medium.
