ERISYS® GE 60

ERISYS® GE 60, epoxidized sorbitol, is an aliphatic multifunctional epoxy resin. This resin imparts higher reactivity and crosslink density to epoxy resin formulations. Additionally, ERISYS® GE-60 can be used to crosslink acid-functional polyurethane and acrylic resins for improved chemical resistance in UV-resistant coatings.
