Chemical Family
Amines

LAPOX® AH-543 (XH-80) is a light colored, low viscosity phenalkamine based on cashew nut shell liquid. It can able to cure modified and unmodified epoxy resin at room temperature as well as low temperatures up to 5°C. It is able to demonstrate good curing characteristic in presence of moisture and high humid conditions. When cured with epoxy resins it provides superior corrosion protection coupled with excellent film forming ability and adhesion to variety of substrates.
