Epotec YD 128 is an unmodified liquid epoxy resin with medium viscosity produced from bisphenol-A and epichlorohydrin. This is a standard liquid epoxy resin and a wide variety of curing agents are available to cure this liquid epoxy resin at ambient conditions and also at elevated temperature. When cured with appropriate hardener, epotec YD 128 gives excellent mechanical, chemical, electrical and adhesion properties. Because of these properties it finds use in various applications.

Applications

• Solvent based, high solids and solvent free coatings
• Adhesives
• Civil engineering and construction industry
• Automotive coatings
• Can & coil coatings
• Marine and Industrial protective coatings
• Tooling, potting, casting and moulding compounds
• Composites
• Stabilizer in PVC

Epotec YD 128G is an unmodified liquid epoxy resin with medium viscosity produced from bisphenol A and epichlorohydrin.

Epotec YDF 170 is general-purpose unmodified low viscosity diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-F. In addition to offering advantage in terms low viscosity, epotec YDF 170 provides better chemical resistance & flexibility when compared to similar bisphenol-A based liquid resin.
Epotec YDF 170 is compatible with all common epoxy resins in all ratios. A blend of epotec YDF 170 with bisphenol-A based liquid resin has better resistance to crystallization compared to unmodified base resins. Blending of epotec YDF 170 into std. bis-A based liquid epoxy resin brings down viscosity without affecting performance parameters unlike reactive diluent modified resin that affects mechanical, chemical and thermal resistance of the system.

Applications

• Solvent based, high solids and solvent free coatings
• Adhesives
• Civil engineering and construction industry
• Automotive coatings
• Coil coatings
• Marine and Industrial protective coatings
• Tooling, potting, casting and molding compounds
• Composites

EPOTEC® TH 7515 is a high viscosity reactive polyamide used as a curing agent for liquid or solution grade epoxy resins such as EPOTEC® YD 128 or EPOTEC® YD 011-X-75 to produce room temperature curable thermoset adhesives and coatings. EPOTEC® TH 7515 is especially used in solvent based anti-corrosion coatings and shows compatibility with a wide range of solvents normally used in epoxy based coatings. The reactivity of the mix can be adjusted by blending with accelerators such as tertiary amine. The coatings based on EPOTEC® TH 7515 shows good toughness and adhesion properties. Because of these properties, it finds use in various applications.
