Applications of Aminoamine, Amine & Polyamide Curing Agents

amine and polyamide curing agent for joint sealing

The unique characteristic of polyamide and amine cured epoxies is their low viscosity, high-flexibility, long pot life, excellent adhesion to substrates and excellent corrosion and water resistance.  Applications include:

  • Joint sealants
  • NSF potable water coatings
  • Potting and encapsulation
  • Patching compounds
  • Maintenance coating applications
  • Primers
  • High solids enamel paint formulations

Versamid® Polyamide Curing Agent

Versamid® products have proven to be superior curing agents in many applications, such as industrial maintenance and marine coatings,
high-performance architectural paints, high-solids and conventional coatings.

Advantages of Polyamide Curing Agents

  • Highly resistant to chemical and water corrosion
  • Strong adhesion to a variety of substrates
  • Long pot life
  • Lower sensitivity to substrate impurities
  • Most comply with FDA regulations

Huntsman Advanced Materials manufactures the Versamid® brand of polyamide curing agent. Versamid® is available with a wide range of properties offering exceptionally rapid cure and flexibility development.

Versamid® G Amidoamine Curing Agent

Versamid® G aminoamine curing agents offer many of the same application benefits as Versamid® polyamides, along with lower viscosity. High system solids and as low as zero VOC compositions can be produced.

Advantages of Amidoamine Curing Agents

  • Superior wetting characteristics when compared to aliphatic amines, aromatic amines, and anhydrides
  • Good adhesion
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Tougher, less toxic and non-migrating in preference to amine or polyamine epoxy coreactants
  • Fast cure time—Both Versamid® and Versamid® G curing agents cure epoxy agents at room temperature in several hours or at elevated temperatures in several minutes

Huntsman Advanced Materials manufactures the Versamid® G brand of aminoamine curing agent. Versamid® G is available with a wide range of properties offering fast cure and exceptional chemical and water resistance.
