- Usage
Technicure® 101 is a free flowing micronized amine adduct especially designed to cure epoxy resin powder coatings at temperatures as low as 125 °C. The low onset temperature of Technicure 101 systems allows for energy saving baking schedules and improved application to temperature sensitive substrates. Technicure® 101 is compatible with epoxy resins when co-extruded or as a hot melt dispensed systems. This flexibility results in a truly homogeneous blend of epoxy resin and curing agent that provides a cured film with superior appearance and performance. Technicure® 101 is a marked improvement over accelerated dicyandiamide type curing agents which are widely used in thin film decorative or functional epoxy powder coatings.
