VESTAMIN IPD is used to produce hardeners for solventless,room temperature curing epoxies and as a hardener in heat cured epoxies.
Hardeners based on VESTAMIN IPD have low viscosity,low tendency to form carbamates, and humidity resistance.Epoxy systems cured with VESTAMIN IPD based hardeners exhibit excellent chemical resistance, high heatdistortion temperatures,and color stability.VESTAMIN IPD has large application in epoxy-based self-leveling and trowelable flooring systems,and various civil engineering applications such as paving, concrete protection and repair. Other applications include coatings for superior corrosion protection of metal, adhesives and anchoring compounds.
VESTAMIN IPD has many other uses based on amine chemistry, such as the production of non-crystalline specialty polyamides with high hardness and optical transparency.It also is used as a chain extender in polyurethanes and as an intermediate in dyes.
