Chemical Family
Amines

Admark Polycoats AP 1300 is a fast hardness development, very good flexibility, similar Of AP 1087, lower solid %. its used in marine coating, protective coating and industrial coatings.

Properties

Low Viscosity Phenalkamines

Suitable for making high solids and solvent free coatings.; Benzyl alcohol and Nonyl Phenol free hardeners for epoxy coatings.; Suitable for applications: Structural steel and concrete primers.; Applications: Potable water pipe coating, tanks.; For Better Handling low viscosity Phenalkamines is preferred.

High solids, VOC Free Phenalkamines

100 % Solids, VOC free Phenalkamines are preferred for excellent workability.; Very fast drying properties. Ideal for applications where a fast return to service is required.; Most suitable for low temperature cure.; Excellent anticorrosive properties. Suitable for concrete primers on damp surfaces.; No induction time required. Non-toxic.; Suitable for high solids surface tolerant marine, industrial, and protective coatings.; Special Grade – Excellent combination of rapid cure and long pot-life at low (< -10 °C/14 °F) temperatures.

HIGHLIGHTS

Admark Polycoats Phenalkamines are based on cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL), a natural, non-food chain, and renewable biomaterial. CNSL is a reddish brown viscous liquid extracted from the soft honeycomb structure inside the cashew nutshell.; CNSL is decarboxylated and distilled to yield high purity Cardanol, a highly desirable alkylphenolic compound used in the coatings and adhesive industries. Cardanol is used as a primary building block for Admark Polycoats epoxy curing agents and epoxy diluents and modifiers.; The product obtained by Mannich reaction of Cardanol, formaldehyde, and certain amines is called a Phenalkamine. Phenalkamines share similar advantages like other Mannich based curing agents, such as: extremely fast cure, low temperature cure (even below 0°C), good chemical resistance, good moisture tolerance, and non-blushing properties. The fast and low temperature cure properties of Phenalkamines have several benefits for coating formulations. Fast cure also means protected surfaces can be re-coated or returned to service in a short period.
