ARADUR® 115-2 X 70 US Hardener is a high molecular weight polyamide supplied at 70% solids in xylene. This hardener is suitable for the formulation of two-component, ambient-cure marine and maintenance coatings.

ARADUR® 125 BDB Hardener is a polyamide material produced by the condensation of dimeric acids and selected polyamines. It has good wetting characteristics and, when used to cure Araldite® epoxy resins, provides excellent flexibility, toughness, and overall performance properties.

ARADUR® 42 is a low-viscosity cycloaliphatic polyamine.

ARALDITE® ECN 1273 is a polyepoxide resin produced by reacting epichlorohydrin with an ortho-cresol formaldehyde novolac. The molecular weight of the novolac controls the resin’s molecular weight and functionality, which ranges from 2.5 to 5.5 reactive groups per molecule. Unlike conventional bisphenol-A based epoxy resins, this polyepoxide offers multiple reactive sites, enhancing crosslinking density and performance.

ARALDITE® EPN 1180 A 85 is a multifunctional epoxy resin with more than two epoxy groups per molecule, offering high cross-link density when properly cured. EPN resins, including EPN 1179 and EPN 1138 SP, provide better chemical and high-temperature resistance compared to standard bisphenol A epoxy resins. These resins are ideal for high-performance applications that require excellent chemical and solvent resistance. They can be used alone or blended with bisphenol A and F epoxy resins for enhanced performance. EPN resins are suitable for two-component systems with room temperature cure, forced cure, or heat cure options.

ARALDITE® GT 6084 is a solid bisphenol-A based epoxy resin designed for the production of epoxy esters. It is insoluble in water and has a softening point of 95-105°C. It is supplied in flake form.

ARALDITE® GT 6097 is a high-melt-viscosity epoxy resin designed for solvent-containing industrial coatings and thick-film powder coatings.

ARALDITE® GT 7071 is a low molecular weight, unmodified solid epoxy resin designed for use in high-performance protective and decorative coatings. It can be cured with polyamines, amine adducts, polyamide hardeners, or acrylic resins. The resin is characterized by excellent batch-to-batch uniformity, good clarity and color, a narrow molecular weight distribution, and favorable solubility characteristics. For the convenience of formulators, ARALDITE® GT 7071 is also available in various solvent types and solvent combinations (see Data Sheet for Araldite® GZ 471 and Araldite® GZ 571 epoxy resin solutions).

ARALDITE® GT 7220 is a modified low molecular weight solid epoxy resin suitable for formulating low-temperature cure powder coatings. Coatings based on ARALDITE® GT 7220 resin exhibit improved chemical and heat resistance compared to standard bisphenol A epoxy resins, such as Araldite® GT 7013 and GT 7014 resins.

ARALDITE® GT 7255 is a flake-form product designed for chemical manufacturing and industrial coatings, specifically for powder coating applications. It features chemical and corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties, toughness, and improved flexibility. This product functions as a binder and resin, ensuring effective performance in various formulations and applications.

ARALDITE® GY 282, used alone or blended with bisphenol A or bisphenol A/F epoxy resins in combination with polyamine hardeners, is recommended for solvent-free coatings, impregnations, floorings, and trowelling compounds applied to steel and concrete substrates. Additionally, when combined with aromatic diamines, GY 282 is suitable for advanced composite applications manufactured via RTM and filament winding.

ARALDITE® GY 289 is a low-viscosity epoxy phenol novolac resin recommended for solvent-free and high-solids coatings. With an average functionality greater than two, it is a multifunctional epoxy resin that provides high crosslink density when properly cured with a variety of hardeners. As a result, coatings based on ARALDITE® GY 289 exhibit excellent chemical and thermal resistance, surpassing those of conventional epoxy resins. Compared to the well-known epoxy phenol novolac resin Araldite® EPN 1179, ARALDITE® GY 289 offers much lower viscosity, making it easier to handle and enabling formulations of solvent-free performance epoxy novolac coatings. It is also compatible in all proportions with liquid bisphenol A and bisphenol F epoxy resins, expanding possibilities for formulating solventless and high-solids coatings.

ARALDITE® GY 6010 N Resin is an unmodified liquid epoxy resin based on bisphenol-A and epichlorohydrin. It has medium viscosity and is a general-purpose epoxy resin widely used in both room temperature and heat-cured systems.

ARALDITE® GZ 488 N 40 is a high molecular weight epoxy resin supplied at 40% non-volatiles in a blend of propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, methyl ethyl ketone, and cyclohexanone. This resin offers outstanding adhesion, flexibility, and toughness, making it ideal for formulating heat-cured industrial coatings.

ARALDITE® GZ 488 V 32 resin is a very high molecular weight epoxy resin solution. Since film forms without the use of hardener, it produces outstanding surface coatings by air or force drying. In addition, the high hydroxyl content of the resin permits reaction with urea-melamine, and phenol-formaldehyde crosslinking resins to produce excellent baking finishes. Coatings based on Araldite® GZ 488 V-32 resin exhibit excellent adhesion, flexibility. impact and abrasion resistance, and chemical and corrosion resistance.
