Polycin® D-290

Polycin® D-290 is a 100% solids, castor oil-based derivative designed for use as a polyol or reactive diluent in polyurethane coating systems. Polycin® D-290, with its very low viscosity, will allow for the formulation of higher system solids with improved VOC reduction. Polycin® D-290 will also impart the beneficial properties of castor oil derivatives, such as improved flow and levelling.
