Waterborne Curing Agents

Westlake Epoxy offers a range of EPIKURE™ curing agents used to achieve high performance waterborne systems for applications such as:

The next generation of metal primers for the transportation industry
Flooring systems with longer pot life and superior chemical resistance
Protective coatings for concrete and metal

EPIKURE waterborne curing agents are most often used in combination with EPI-REZ™ waterborne resins. These resin/curing agent systems can generally be diluted to the desired solids level by simply adding water. They are also compatible with a variety of wetting agents, additives, co-solvents and coupling agents to achieve enhanced properties.

EPIKURE waterborne curing agents are useful for applications including flooring, adhesives, anticorrosive primers, and textile binders.
