CYMEL® NF 2000A
CYMEL NF 2000A resin is a unique trifunctional melamine-based crosslinker containing reactive carbamate functionality supplied in n-butanol. It can be used to crosslink hydroxy- and epoxy-containing polymers to give highly durable, acid-resistant films that exhibit a favorable balance of hardness and flexibility. An important feature of CYMEL NF 2000A resin is that it does not contain or emit formaldehyde on cure. It can be employed as the sole crosslinker in a coating or ink formulation, or it may be used at lower levels in combination with other crosslinkers, such as amino resins or isocyanates, in order to obtain a balance of properties. CYMEL NF 2000A resin is recommended for high quality durable finishes such as automotive topcoats, exterior can varnishes, and coil coatings.
