Baxxodur® EC 151
Baxxodur® EC 151 is a curing agent for cold curing of epoxy resins. It is a novel amine for epoxy formulators challenged with low VOC regulations and offers an advantageous toxicity profile, long workability, and excellent surface quality.
Sustainability Contribution
By replacing critical reactive diluents and solvents, Baxxodur® EC 151 enables low VOC formulations and thus enhances sustainability in epoxy applications. Its superior surface durability extends the lifespan of coatings. Furthermore, a wide application window facilitates more cost-effective operations at construction sites.
Outstanding properties for a wide range of application areas contribute to sustainability in the construction industry:
Unique mechanical properties
Resins cured with Baxxodur EC 151 are both stiff and tough, resulting in highly resistant thermosets.
Low mix viscosities
Enables solvent and reactive diluent-free recipes for low VOC and reduced complexity, allowing for more mineral fillers thus lowering costs and increasing durability.
Excellent surface quality without adduct formation
Low tendency to form carbamates simplifies the process, reduces costs, and enhances ease of handling.
Low toxicity
Features a favorable hazard profile, as it is not acutely toxic, making it safe and easy to handle.
Fast cold cure (5-10°C)
Cures quickly at low temperatures – efficient but not overly rapid.
Long workability
Low initial viscosity allows resins mixed with Baxxodur EC 151 to remain workable longer, facilitating efficient processes despite fast curing.
