The properties of the curing agent are essential in controlling the curing of the epoxy resin and the properties of the finished product. Specific characteristic values for the reaction with standard resins based on diglycidylether of bisphenol A (DGEBA) are available for the Baxxodur™ portfolio:

Curing agent Amine number Viscosity Density Cured resin Glass transition temperature Impact strength Tensile strength Tensile modulus Elongation at break Flexural strength Flexural modulus Shore D hardness Curing process Gel time Reaction enthalpy Peak exotherm   T-peel test Solvent resistance Chemical resistance Water permeability Lap shear strength Compressive strength Density Degree of cure

The broad portfolio of Baxxodur curing agents allows the characteristics to be adjusted flexibly according to the required properties and application.

In our new epoxy application laboratory the curing process is investigated in detail.
