CYMEL® U-216-8 resin is a partially n-butylated urea crosslinking agent supplied in a mixture of n-butanol and xylene. It possesses a lower molecular weight than most other butylated ureas, which contributes to its low bulk viscosity and high degree of hydrocarbon tolerance. CYMEL® U-216-8 resin displays excellent compatibility with most hydrophobic resins, such as epoxies, and can contribute to improved leveling and adhesion characteristics. CYMEL® U-216-8 resin is recommended as a crosslinking resin in primer coatings, can coatings, and metal
