AP2450 - 30560 |
| Description | 100%
active polyfunctional aziridine liquid crosslinker. For industrial
use in ALLPRO Acrylic Urethane Waterborne Varnishes where there is a need to
improve the water, chemical, abrasion and humidity resistance on
surfaces such as table tops and high traffic floors.
|
| Prominent Features |
|
| Uses | For
use in ALLPRO Acrylic Urethane Waterborne Varnishes.
|
| Limitations | Will
slowly hydrolyze in waterborne systems and should be used within 1-3
days after preparation. Hydrolyzed hardener has no adverse effect on
either the Acrylic Urethane resin or dried film properties. Film
hardness may suffer as the deactivated crosslinker acts to plasticize
the film. A 2/1 or 3/1 blend of fresh to aged formula is
recommended before re-inoculation with the hardness enhancer at the
original amount to maintain formula consistency.
|
| Application | Add
between 1 and 2 ounces per gallon based on application need. Add slowly
while stirring. Eye protection, gloves and suitable clothing must
be worn to avoid contact with skin and eyes. Mix thoroughly and avoid over
shaking. |
| Clean Up | Clean
up with warm water. A small amount of acetic acid or a mineral acid may be added to the water
to improve the speed of clean up. |
