APPLICATIONS
|
|
Diluent is an organic liquid added to resin formulations, , with no solvent
power, to reduce viscosity and to ease flow movement or to improve the
consistency and applicability. Typical applications would be for the manufacture
of paints, lacquer, varnishes, adhesives, and coatings. Thinner's function is to
make the application simple only and must evaporate after application. The term
of diluent is also used in solvent system as an inert substance added to some
other substance or solution so that the concentration volume is decreased.
Diglycidyl
resorcinol ether, difunctional
glycidyl ether of resorcinol; containing 2 epoxide groups ( three-membered ring cyclic ethers that are also known
as oxiranes or alkylene oxides). Aliphatic glycidyl ethers are used as epoxy
resin diluents
to reduce viscosity, favoring improved
filler loading and substrate wetting and resulting in
faster curing time. Aromatic glycidyl ethers are used as agent
to reduce
elevation temperature and to improve homogeneity by
protecting crystallization of epoxy resins. End applications include coating, adhesive, casting, laminating,
encapsulation or foam. It is used as a epoxy resin modifier for the fast
cure and for the improved chemical resistance.
