Cytec Introduces BECKOPOX™ EP
2384w/57WA –
Innovative Epoxy Dispersion for Two-Component Protective Coating
Systems
Woodland Park, NJ – July 13, 2010 - Cytec Industries Inc.
(NYSE:CYT) announced today the launch of BECKOPOX™ EP 2384w/57WA
– a new solvent-free waterborne epoxy dispersion.
This highly advanced product is designed for high performance
waterborne ambient cure two-component epoxy monocoats and
primers for metallic substrates. BECKOPOX EP 2384w/57WA, when
used with BECKOPOX VEH 2188w/80WA waterborne amine hardener,
enables customers to formulate below 50 g/L VOC, while exceeding
1000 hours salt–fog without the need for anti-corrosion
pigments. Furthermore, coatings are fast drying and hard. These
additional benefits provide early handling, fast top coating and
early water resistance.
“BECKOPOX EP 2384w/57WA clearly outperforms other waterborne
epoxy dispersions, while maintaining very low VOC, especially in
corrosion and water resistance. With this product we have
developed a solution which is well suited for factory applied
coatings as well as field applied protective coatings,” says Dr.
Leila Khatai, Technical Service & Development Leader for Cytec
Liquid Coating Resins. “BECKOPOX EP 2384w/57WA is a great
example that underlines Cytec’s commitment to pioneering
sustainable change through the development of low-VOC coatings
along with advancing performance beyond traditional offerings.”
