BECKOPOX™ EP 386W/52WA

BECKOPOX™ EP 386w/52WA is a solid epoxy resin, flexibilized and dispersed in water. Here are the key details from the technical datasheet:

Type:

• Solid epoxy resin; flexibilized; dispersion in water

Form of Delivery (F.O.D.):

• 52% in water (52WA) (containing also approximately 4.7% propoxy ethanol)

Special Properties:

• Internally plasticized solid resin-Type 1-dispersion with improved shear stability, suitable for water-reducible fast-drying anticorrosion primers and coatings for plastics.

Product Data:

• Dynamic Viscosity: 300 - 1500 mPa.s (100 1/s; 23°C)
• Epoxy Equivalent: 900 - 1100 g/mol (form of delivery); 485 - 550 g/mol (non-volatile matter)
• Non-Volatile Matter: 50 - 54%
• Color / Appearance: Whitish
• Density: Approximately 1.08 g/cm³ (20°C)
• Flash Point: > 100°C

Suggested Uses and Processing:

• Suitable for corrosion protection primers with very good adhesion to most metallic substrates.
• Can be used in single coat and decorative systems for metallic substrates.
• Dispersion of pigments and fillers can be done if the temperature does not exceed 40°C.

Mixing Ratio and Pot Life:

• Example blend: 100.0 g BECKOPOX EP 386w/52WA + 14.5 g BECKOPOX EH 613w/80WA + 22.5 g deionized water, with a pot life at 23°C of approximately 2.5 hours.

Storage:

• Storage stability packed in original containers at temperatures up to 25°C amounts to at least 270 days.
• Protect from frost and direct sunlight. Store at low temperatures under frostproof conditions.

Distinguishing Features:

• Internally plasticized, offering more flexibility than BECKOPOX EP 384w.
• Allows dispersion of pigments and fillers.

Safety at Work and Environmental Protection:

• Follow local regulations when handling and processing epoxy resins and hardeners.
• Material Safety Data Sheet available on request.

In summary, BECKOPOX EP 386w/52WA is a water-dispersed epoxy resin suitable for anticorrosion primers and coatings, offering good adhesion and flexibility.
