PHENOXY™ PKHC

Phenoxy™ PK HC Resin has an average viscosity compared to most phenoxy resins. Phenoxy resins (polyhydroxyethers) are tough, ductile, amorphous thermoplastic polymers with excellent thermal stability, adhesive strength, and vapor barrier properties. Phenoxy resins may be crosslinked by reacting their hydroxyl functional groups with isocyanates, melamine resins, or phenolic resins. Crosslinked Phenoxy resins exhibit excellent chemical resistance, hardness, and adhesion on many substrates, including steel, aluminum, glass, carbon fibers, and plastics such as nylon and polyester (PET). Phenoxy™ PK HC Resin may also be formulated in single-pack epoxies containing latent hardeners, such as dicyandiamide, providing improved toughness and adhesive strength on substrates when properly cured. Phenoxy™ PK HC Resin is soluble in many polar, aprotic solvents such as MEK, cyclohexanone, and glycol ethers.

Storage & Handling

Storage Information

PHENOXY™ PK HC should be stored in a dry place, in its sealed original container, at temperatures between 0°C - 40°C (32°F - 104°F). Under these storage conditions the product has a shelf life of 10 years from date of manufacture. The product should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
Phenoxy resins may absorb water, ~1% by weight, if exposed for long periods of time to the atmosphere. Pellets can be dried at 80 - 90 0C if desired.
