  • Good chemical resistance
  • Good thermal resistance
Distinguishing Features
  • No BISPHENOL A, Phenol, Nonylphenol or Alkylphenols
  • No Benzyl Alcohol (Low emission hardner)
  • Good alternative to obsolete ARADUR® 3740
Product Features and Benefits
  • Improved crystallization resistance compare to Aradur ® 42
  • Similar properties than Aradur ® 42 (Mechanical, viscosity, mix ratio, kinetik)
  • Very good chemical resistance
  • Can be combine with other hardener (i.e. ARADUR® 33641, ARADUR® 20315(S)) in order to reduce viscosity
  • No BISPHENOL A, Phenol, Nonylphenol or Alkylphenols
  • No Benzyl Alcohol (Low emission hardner)
  • Good alternative to obsolete ARADUR® 3740
