CYMEL® 1130

CYMEL® 1130 resin is a methylated/n-butylated melamine crosslinker with a high extent of alkylation. Its hydrophobic nature makes for improved wetting and adhesion on metal substrates, and improved humidity and salt spray resistance. CYMEL® 1130 resin is insoluble in water but shows excellent compatibility and stability with water-soluble backbone polymers and is an excellent crosslinker for anodic electrodeposition coatings.

Storage & Handling

Storage Conditions
  • CYMEL 1130 resin has a she life of 5 years from the date of manufacture when stored at temperatures between 5°C and 30°C.
  • Although lower temperatures are not detrimental to stability, its viscosity will increase, possibly making the resin difficult to pump or pour.
  • The viscosity will reduce again on warming, but care should be taken to avoid excessive local heat, as this can cause an irreversible increase in viscosity.
