Epoxy Curing Agents and Modifiers
Ancamine DL50 curing agent is a liquid mixture of aromatic amines based on methylenedianiline (MDA). In addition to MDA, Ancamine DL50 curative contains polymethylene polyanilines and aromatic amines with a functionality greater than 4. The multifunctional nature of polymethylene polyanilines can increase the crosslink density of a completely cured epoxy compared with methylenedianiline. Ancamine DL50 curative is best suited for use as an epoxy curative in forced cure applications. This aromatic, multifunctional curative can be used to produce high-strength, chemically-resistant, elevated temperature-tolerant epoxy parts. Epoxy systems cured with Ancamine DL50 curative offer excellent resistance to water, acid, alkalies and hydrocarbon solvents.
