EPON™ Resin 8161

Description

EPON™ Resin 8161 is a moderate viscosity resin containing both epoxide and reactive unsaturation functionality. Reactivity of this resin with aliphatic and cycloaliphatic amine curing agents closely parallels that of unmodified liquid bisphenol A/ephichlorohydrin epoxy resins. This unique feature allows the substitution of EPON 8161 for the basic epoxy in many systems without adversely affecting cure rates.

Benefits

  • Excellent substrate wetting
  • Light color
  • Low vapor pressure
  • High reactivity and good cured property profile with specific amine types
