Performance Highlights

Fast cure; Good long pot-life; Excellent early hardness development; dust-free in <10 min; Very good crosslinking development (MEK rubs); Excellent exterior durability; Excellent clarity; Excellent gloss; Excellent distinctness of image (DOI); Low VOC coatings possible; <3.0 lbs/gal

Curing

Based on 100% conversion of reactive groups the following equation can be used to calculate the quantity of polyisocyanate needed for crosslinking 100 parts (insert product name) (on solids):; Polyisocyanate(f.o.d.) = 42 x 100 x OH% (solid resin) / 17 x NCO% (f.o.d.); 42 = molecular weight of the NCO-group; 17 = molecular weight of the OH-group; Anhydrous solvents as well as solvents free of hydroxyl functional groups should be used in the presence of polyisocyanates, as dilution solvents.
