NANOMYTE® MEND 2000
- Chemical Family
- Polyurethanes (PU)
NANOMYTE® MEND 2000 is a solventborne, self-healing coating that heals at room temperature. The 2-part coating involves a unique phase-separated morphology that facilitates the delivery of the self-healing agent to the damage site (such as a scratch or crack) thereby restoring the coating appearance & function. When the coated surface is scratched or cracked, self-healing is initiated at room temperature or can be accelerated at higher temperatures (> 40°C).

- Benefits
Cost Savings - Reduces raw material, labor, and energy cost of repainting or recoating; Durability - Increases the service life of coatings by preserving esthetic and protective functions; Environment - Minimizes the environmental costs and societal impact of repainting (e.g., waste disposal and volatile-organic-compound emissions); Maintenance - Eliminates the need to frequently repaint or replace damaged coatings

- Ready-to-Use Products
- Customization
Viscosity may be adjusted by diluting with MEND Reducer; contact NEI if a higher viscosity is desired.; Tints and pigments are available, contact NEI for further information.; DTT (dry-to-touch) time may be reduced with the addition of MEND catalyst. This will also reduce pot life.
- Labeling Claims
- Environmentally Friendly
- Application Notes
Self-healing is initiated at room temperature and is accelerated at higher temperatures (> 40°C).; Avoid extended exposure to temperatures in excess of 140°C.; Depending on film thickness and curing conditions, properties such as hardness and solvent resistance, may continue to develop over a period of days to weeks.
- Available Quantities
NANOMYTE® MEND 2000 is sold and shipped directly from NEI in liter or gallon quantities (components A & B are included with purchase). Bulk quantities and customized versions of our MEND coatings are also available upon request – contact NEI for details.
