GABEPRO™ GPM-800 LO

GABEPRO™ GPM-800LO Curing Agent is a mercaptan (-SH) terminated liquid curing agent that imparts rapid-cure characteristics to epoxy resins in combination with selected amines. These systems are unique in that they also provide rapid cure rates at low temperatures and in thin films. GPM-800LO is formulated to have an improved odor relative to the standard product.

Technical Details & Test Data

Technical Information
  • GABEPRO™; GPM-800LO curing agent is a unique polymercaptan epoxy hardener which, when used with a catalyst, provides very rapid cures of epoxy systems, even in thin films and at low temperatures.
  • The catalyst is an integral part of a GPM-800LO system. The action of a properly selected catalyst can provide gel times as short as 4 minutes. GABEPRO™; GPA-30 tertiary amine is a most effective catalyst for GPM-800LO systems.
  • A two-part epoxy system can be obtained by blending the tertiary amine into the GPM-800LO to produce the epoxy hardener system. In the blending process, care should be taken to avoid introducing iron contamination.
  • The catalyst, fillers, other additives and the equipment used should be selected carefully with avoidance of iron contamination in mind. Iron contamination in connection with oxygen in the atmosphere may cause skinning in some systems.
