PERFORMANCE BENEFITS
SOLVENT-FREE CURING AGENTS FOR MARINE & PROTECTIVE COATINGS
Cardolite offers many low viscosity curing agents for solvent free epoxy primers and coatings. Recently developed NX-5660, and NX-5594 and LITE 2002(LP) are excellent options to deliver high performance to low/zero VOC coatings. NX-5660 and NX-5594 offer very fast cure at low temperatures even in heavily diluted systems, while LITE 2002(LP) offers fast cure with longer pot life. All three curing agents provide long term corrosion protection on surfaces exposed to harsh conditions and show very good re-coatability and mechanical properties. NX-5660 and NX-5594 have shown excellent cathodic disbondment resistance and good performance after immersion in hot water.
NEW LITE 3070 PHENALKAMIDE – FAST CURE WITH LONG POT LIFE
New phenalkamide, LITE 3070, provides fast dry times at room temperature while also delivering a long pot life and working time. This epoxy curing agent can be formulated in zero and low VOC epoxy systems due to its low viscosity. LITE 3070 is suitable for coatings, adhesives and any epoxy application that require good weatherability and protection coupled with good reactivity and friendly application and handling properties. When formulated in high solids and solvent free coatings, LITE 3070 demonstrated excellent anticorrosion performance as seen in salt spray tests. Moreover, this material provides very good intercoat adhesion even at low temperature and high humidity, and good adhesion to metal substrates and flexibility. As with other phenalkamides, LITE 3070 delivers low yellowing upon UV exposure.
Our phenalkamides offer benefits of phenalkamines and polyamides in one technology. While they inherited the fast cure speed even at lower temperatures and excellent corrosion protection of phenalkamines, they also deliver the good flexibility, UV resistance and long overcoatability seen with polyamides. To learn more visit our Phenalkamide Technology page.
INTERCOAT ADHESION AT HARSH CONDITIONS
Many protective coatings systems are comprised of a primer and a topcoat. Commonly, the coating application takes place at a job site without control of environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. Even though most coatings show good cure properties and intercoat adhesion at standard application conditions, they may fail if cured at lower temperatures specially in combination with higher humidity. Phenalkamide LITE 3117 provides excellent cure speed even at 5°C allowing formulators to continue the work in colder winter days. In addition, LITE 3117 retains excellent intercoat adhesion to topcoats when cured at 5°C/ 90-85% R.H. for only 2 days.
Our phenalkamide product line offers a good balance between fast cure and long pot life while delivering good UV resistance and long-term corrosion protection. To learn more visit our Phenalkamide Technology page.
EXCELLENT WET-ON-WET RECOATABILITY
Typically, epoxy primers fully dry prior to being top coated with another coating layer. However, it is not unusual for applicators to add a second layer of coating before the primer has completely cured. For instance, polyurethanes are commonly applied over epoxy systems after short intervals in automotive refinish and transportation markets. This quick recoatability increases productivity and minimizes asset downtime. In this type of application referred to as wet-on-wet recoat, the shorter the recoat interval the better. Some projects require epoxy curing agents that can provide recoat times as short as 15-30 minutes to the epoxy coatings. If the epoxy + polyurethane system is not properly designed, film appearance can be compromised. As a result, an effect known as “die back” causes lower gloss of the polyurethane top coat.
Our evaluations have shown primers based on many of our phenalkamines and phenalkamides deliver very fast recoat times without hurting the film appearance. Also, they still provide excellent corrosion protection to the substrate as shown in the graphs below.
EXCELLENT CATHODIC DISBONDMENT PROTECTION
Cardolite CNSL-based epoxy curing agents provide excellent cathodic disbondment protection. Cathodic disbondment is an important test to evaluate the behavior of coatings that can be subjected to sacrificial cathodic protection as done in pipelines and other applications.
As examples, phenalkamide and phenalkamine grades LITE 3060 and NX-5594, respectively, underwent cathodic disbondment testing at 25°C for 30 days. No blisters or peeling were observed in the coating films and the maximum and minimum delamination from the holiday were low as indicated on the panels. The coatings kept good adhesion to the substrate without delamination, and the exposed metal area was free of rust. In addition, those grades are free of solvent and low in viscosity, therefore enabling very low VOC coatings. Both LITE 3060 and NX-5594 provide long-term corrosion protection as demonstrated in salt spray tests as well.
Other CNSL-based epoxy curing agents that provide excellent corrosion and cathodic disbondment protection are also available. Please check with your sales representative for further product recommendations.
CURING AGENT PRODUCT LINES
PHENALKAMINE EPOXY CURING AGENTS
Our phenalkamines are made through a Mannich reaction using cardanol as starting material. They provide very fast cure even below zero temperatures and excellent adhesion and corrosion protection even on immersed surfaces. Similarly, in adhesive applications, phenalkamines deliver very fast bond strength development to various substrates under strenuous conditions of cold temperatures and wet environments (even under water). Additionally, phenalkamines can be applied in a wide range of conditions and show good adhesion even to non-prepared surfaces, lowering application risk failures.
Moreover, through our Ultra LITE proprietary technology, very light color phenalkamines have been developed. The long chain of cardanol in the backbone of phenalkamine epoxy curing agents provides low viscosity and enables solvent free and very high solids coatings. In addition, use levels are non-critical and formulation friendly with 2:1 and 1:1 pack ratios possible.
Phenalkamines are an excellent option for coatings, adhesives, and composite applications.
PHENALKAMIDE EPOXY CURING AGENTS
Cardolite phenalkamides offer epoxy systems excellent corrosion protection and fast cure while maintaining long pot life, good flexibility and UV resistance, and extended overcoat window. In adhesives, phenalkamides can be used to develop high strength epoxy systems that require high mechanical properties and good thermal resistance. Both coatings and adhesives can benefit from phenalkamides ability to bond well to various substrates such as concrete, blasted and smooth metals, composites and some plastics.
The balance properties of phenalkamides allows for universal use in coating and adhesive applications during all four seasons of the year. DTM coatings are also possible with phenalkamides for higher efficiency. Some grades are drop-in alternatives to commercial polyamides to allow for easy substitution in formulations. High solids and solvent free grades are also available to enable low VOC and low viscosity epoxy systems that cannot be achieved with polyamide chemistry.
WATERBORNE TECHNOLOGY
The NX-8000 Series waterborne line of curing agents enables zero and low V.O.C. epoxy coatings with solvent-like performance. Cardolite offers a variety of grades that meet the needs of flooring, industrial, container, transportation and protective coatings applications. Building and construction adhesives can also benefit from this technology.
In our offering, formulators will find grades that can protect and bond to various surfaces including challenging substrates such as galvanized steel and aluminum. In addition to excellent corrosion protection, our grades provide wide curing conditions and excellent compatibility with various epoxy dispersion resins. As examples, compatibility with epoxy resin and fast cure even at 10°C and 80% RH can be achieved with NX-8101. Very long pot life and fast recoatability are made possible with NX-8401. Good UV resistance and quick wet-on-wet systems are delivered by NX-8501.
Cardolite also offers water soluble curing agents diluted in 1-methoxy-2-propanol and other solvents upon request, for use in waterborne zinc rich primers or other water-based applications.
