DAOTAN TW 6450/30WA is recommended as the NMP / NEP- free alternative for DAOTAN (V)TW 1236. Like the latter, DAOTAN TW 6450 is a polycarbonate-based, high molecular weight Polyurethane dispersion. Dried at ambient temperature, DAOTAN TW 6450 provides clear, crack-free films without further addition of organic solvents or additives. These films exhibit excellent elasticity and mechanical properties and very good adhesion to different plastic substrates like e.g. ABS, PC, PA, PVC, PC/PBT. Accordingly DAOTAN TW 6450/30WA is particularly recommended for waterborne plastic primer and waterborne auto OEM Basecoats with outstanding requirements regarding stone chip resistance properties. A further use is as modifier resin to improve stone chip resistance properties of e.g. auto OEM primer surfacer formulations. DAOTAN TW 6450/30WA can be used as an adhesive for pharmaceutical and food packaging applications. It provides excellent peel strength and long-term humidity resistance. It is ready to use; no further formulation is needed.

Beckopox EH 2162W is a hardener designed for water-reducible coatings on mineral and metallic substrates. It is particularly suitable for concrete coatings, offering lower viscosity and a longer pot-life compared to standard hardeners like Beckopox EH 623w, especially at lower VOC levels and when used with liquid epoxy resins.

EBECRYL® 2959 is an acrylated epoxy resin. Films of EBECRYL® 2959 cured by ultraviolet light (UV) or electron beam (EB) exhibit good hardness, high gloss and the good solvent resistance typical for an epoxy resin. EBECRYL®2959 finds its use in a wide range of inks and coatings.

CYMEL® 385 resin is a methylated high imino melamine resin with a low degree of alkylation. Being supplied in water, it is recommended as a crosslinking agent for hydroxyl-containing emulsion polymers and other aqueous systems containing hydroxyl or amide functionality. CYMEL® 385 resin has a high tendency to self-condense and may be used to increase the hardness and resistance properties of thermoplastic waterborne polymers.
