EPON™ Resin 862 (Diglycidyl Ether of Bisphenol F) is a low viscosity, liquid epoxy resin manufactured from epichlorohydrin and Bisphenol-F. This resin contains no diluents or modifiers. EPON Resin 862 may be used as the sole epoxy resin or combined with other resins such as EPON Resin 828. When blended with EPON Resin 828, EPON Resin 862 provides a technique to reduce viscosity with no sacrifice in chemical and solvent resistance properties, and the blended resin will exhibit improved crystallization resistance properties when compared to the neat, liquid, Bisphenol-A or Bisphenol-F type resins. When EPON Resin 862 is cross-linked with appropriate curing agents, superior mechanical, adhesive, electrical and chemical resistance properties can be obtained.
Application Areas/Suggested Uses :
- Solventless or high solids/low VOC maintenance and marine coatings
- Chemical resistant tank linings, floorings, and grouts
- Fiber reinforced pipes, tanks, and composites
- Tooling, casting, and molding compounds
-Construction, electrical, and aerospace adhesives
Benefits :
- Low viscosity
- Low color
- Reacts with a full range of epoxy curatives
- Good balance of mechanical, adhesive, and electrical properties
- Good chemical resistance
- Superior physical properties vs. diluted (6 Poise) resins
