- Additional Information
- D.E.R.® 337 Epoxy Resin is an intermediate epoxy equivalent weight epoxy resin, mainly used in adhesives and protective coatings, or as a modifier for other epoxy resins to improve impact strength, extensibility and adhesion.
- The excellent resistance and physical properties have established D.E.R.® 337 Epoxy Resin as a major raw material for epoxy coal tar combinations and higher solids content marine coatings.
- D.E.R.® 337 Resin can be used to modify performance as well as handling properties of liquid epoxy resin, such as D.E.R.® 337 Resin, and epoxy novolac type of resins, such as D.E.R.® Epoxy Novolac Resin and D.E.R.® 438 Epoxy Novolac Resin.
- A wide variety of curing agents is available to cure this resin at ambient conditions.
- Most frequently used curing agents are aliphatic polyamines, polyamides and modified versions of these.
- Elevated temperature cure is necessary and post-cure required to develop full end properties if anhydride or catalytic curing agents are employed.
