CYMEL® 1125 resin is a highly methylated/ethylated, carboxyl-modified benzoguanamine crosslinker supplied in 2-butoxy ethanol. It is especially designed for electro-deposition primer formulations requiring excellent corrosion and detergent resistance. The structure of CYMEL® 1125 resin offers superior adhesion to metal substrates. CYMEL® 1125 resin can be used in a wide range of general purpose industrial finishes. However, because CYMEL® 1125 resin contains chelating groups which can form colored compounds with heavy metal ions such as iron and zinc, it is recommended for use in only dark single coat applications or primers, and not in pastel colors. Benzoguanamine resins have poor resistance to UV light, hence CYMEL® 1125 is not suitable for exterior applications
