Cardanol-Based Epoxy Hardener Technology

Sustainable phenalkamine curing agents derived from Cashew Nutshell Liquid (CNSL), engineered for high performance protective coatings.

Admark Polycoats is a pioneer in the development and manufacturing of Cardanol-based phenalkamines and phenalkamides, delivering high-purity, bio-based epoxy hardeners for demanding industrial environments.

What is Cardanol?

Cardanol is a renewable phenolic compound obtained from Cashew Nutshell Liquid (CNSL).

Extracted from cashew nut shells, which are abundantly available in coastal areas of India, Cardanol is a green raw material useful in a variety of products.

Cardanol contains a phenolic hydroxyl group and a long aliphatic side chain in the meta position, making it an ideal and environmentally friendly raw material for specialty epoxy curing agents.

Due to its unique structure, Cardanol enables the development Through advanced reaction technologies including:of high-performance coatings that combine flexibility, durability, and chemical resistance.

Why Cardanol-Based Hardeners?

Low temperature curing
Excellent flexibility and adhesion
High chemical and water resistance
Moisture tolerant applications
Longer pot life
