Technicure® DCMU

CAS Number
101-42-8
EC Number
202-941-4
Chemical Name
Fenuron

Technicure® DCMU is a substituted urea. It is used as a dicyandiamide (DICY) accelerator in one-component epoxy resin based formulations. Typically the product is used with epoxy resin and dicyandiamide between 1-3 phr. The loading level of an accelerator will provide balance of low temperature reactivity and formulation shelf stability.
