Epoxy Curing Agents and Modifiers
Ancamine 2686 curing agent is a modified cycloaliphatic polyamine intended for use as a room temperature curing agent for liquid epoxy resin. Based upon Air Products’ cycloaliphatic amines, it offers exceptional cost-in-use economics and a broad balance of chemical resistance and surface appearance properties. Ancamine 2686 curing agent provides high mechanical build, rapid cure and is particularly suitable for lower temperature use.
