- Benefits
Excellent combination of fast cure and good pot-life at both ambient and low (>5°C/40°F) temperatures; Good wetting and adhesion; Excellent leveling properties; Very good chemical resistance; Compatible with most epoxy resins, solvents and their blends; Excellent color and gloss retention; Non-critical mix ratio; No induction time required; Non-toxic and non-corrosive; Based from natural, renewable, non-food chain raw material feedstock
- Storage Condition
Cardolite products may absorb moisture and carbon dioxide when left in open containers, which could result in increased viscosity, discoloration, reduction of reactivity, and/or crystallization of the products. These products should be kept tightly sealed in their original containers when not in use, and stored in a cool, dry place.
- Applications
Cardolite Ultra LITE 2009H is usable in high solids coatings over concrete, primers, and metal substrates.; This product's very low viscosity gives it good wetting and leveling properties, and its excellent yellowing resistance makes it ideal for topcoat applications.; Its ability to cure over a wide temperature range and non-critical mix ratio can bring coatings broad application latitude.; A durable, high performance, compatible barrier protection system for concrete can be formulated using this product in a topcoat or self-leveling coating over a surface primer based on another Cardolite phenalkamine.
