Cardolite® NC - 513

Cardolite® NC - 513 is a monofunctional reactive epoxy diluent used to increase flexibility, impact resistance, water resistance, and flexural strength. It has low viscosity and volatility, making it ideal for formulating solvent-free adhesives. It exhibits good water resistance and reacts completely into the epoxy network, enhancing bond strength.
