Epoxy Diluents
Cardanol Based Reactive Diluent
- Lowers viscosity of epoxy resins.
- Gives flexibility to coating and good wetting to the substrate.
- Good dilution effect.
- Good adhesion to marginally prepared surfaces.
- Good corrosion resistance in epoxy systems.
- Compatible and usable in a variety of coating materials.
- Natural, renewable, non-food raw material feedstock.
Cardanol Based Non-Reactive Diluents
- Lowers viscosity while maintaining performance
- Gives flexibility to coating and good wetting to the substrate.
- Good dilution effect.
- Good adhesion to marginally prepared surfaces.
- Good corrosion resistance in epoxy systems.
- Excellent brush and roller application.
- Compatible and usable in a variety of coating materials.
- Natural, renewable, non-food raw material feedstock.
Epoxidized Cardanol (RESIN Modifier)
Applications: Marine, protective, and industrial coatings that require increased flexibility. Also, can be used in structural adhesive applications.
- Useful for making Solvent free high solid coatings.
- Recommended Use Level is 20 – 30 % without affecting drying properties.
- Ideal replacement of flexible 1, 6- hexanediol diglycidyl ether.
- Enhanced workability without sacrificing other performance properties.
- Excellent product to achieve long pot-life at ambient & low temperatures.
- Non-toxic and non-corrosive.
- It is usable in many epoxy applications.
Benefits
- Di-functional epoxy with good reactivity.
- Increases flexibility while maintaining performance.
- Excellent chemical and water resistance.
- Compatible with all epoxy resins and Hardeners.
- Based on natural, renewable, non-food raw material.
