Curing Agents & Hardeners
Product Family
Modified Aliphatic Amines

Aliphatic Amines, modified to reduce their corrosive property while optimizing hardness, reactivity and working time, serve as top-notch Curing Agents. These room temperature cured Hardeners mostly offer good mechanical, adhesion & dielectric properties. Most Modified Aliphatic Amine Curing Agents provide systems with excellent corrosion & chemical resistance and high thermal stability. Usually yellow in color they tend to exhibit high yellowing over time. Across its range, Aliphatic Amine Curing Agents offer varying viscosities & reactivity and post-curing performance, making them suitable for a wide array of applications.

Given their excellent combination of properties, Modified Aliphatic Amine Curing Agents are widely used in protective coatings, fast-setting adhesives & mortars, construction & civil engineering, electrical & electronics and composite applications. They are also used for specialized applications like chemically resistant linings & mortars, solvent-free and high-solids coatings and for processes like lay-up laminating, electrical encapsulation, and filament winding.
