Epikote Epoxy Resins

Product Description
EPIKOTE Resin 828 is a medium viscosity liquid epoxy resin produced from bisphenol A resin and epichlorohydrin. It contains no diluent. EPIKOTE 828 provides good pigment wetting and good resistance tofiller settling and a high level of mechanical and chemical resistance properties in cured state. However, asan unmodified pure bisphenol A resin, EPIKOTE 828 is prone to crystallize on storage, particularly in cold conditions (see bulletin EK 1.5.11 for a description of the laboratory test method used to determine the crystallization tendency of EPIKOTE resins). Note, EPIKOTE 827, 828 and 828 LVEL are unmodified resins of similar type and performance; they offer the formulator a choice of viscosity.

Application Areas/Suggested Uses
Electrical and electronic industries (potting, casting, impregnating). Building and civil engineering industries(floorings, adhesives, mortars, grouts). Filament winding for composites. Solvent free and high-solids coatings.

Benefits:
l Medium viscosity
