Furalkamine
A new class of phenol-free mannich base curing agents for epoxy resins; offering excellent low temperature and chemical resistance.
Furalkamines are a new form of mannich base curing agents, derived from pentosane-rich biomass. Subsequent reaction with a variety of amines influences the processing characteristics and offers a new solution to low-temperature cure and cure under adverse conditions, whilst maintaining regulatory compliance.
These epoxy hardeners are especially useful for formulating systems for protective coatings and civil engineering applications.
The key properties include:
- Low viscosity
- Good reactivity
- SVHC free
- Bio Content – >25%
The new series of Furalkamines have been designed to be REACH compliant allowing continuity of supply in Europe for solvent free coatings and systems for civil engineering.
FURALKAMINE F 101
Characterised by low viscosity, good low temperature reactivity and excellent chemical resistance. It is REACH compliant, Bio derived and has an absence of phenol and alkyl phenols and may be utilised in a variety of applications including solvent free coatings and systems for civil engineering.
FURALKAMINE F 103
Characterised by low viscosity, good reactivity and excellent acid/alkali resistance. It is REACH compliant, Bio derived and has an absence of phenol and alkyl phenols and may be utilised in a variety of applications including solvent free coatings and systems for civil engineering.
