Technical Details & Test Data
- Curing With Polyisocyanates
Based on 100% conversion of reactive groups the following equation can be used to calculate the quantity of polyisocyanate needed for crosslinking 100 parts (insert product name) (on solids):
Polyisocyanate (f.o.d.) = 42 x 100 x OH% (solid resin) / 17 x NCO% (f.o.d.)
42 = molecular weight of the NCO-group
17 = molecular weight of the OH-group
Anhydrous solvents as well as solvents free of hydroxyl functional groups should be used in the presence of polyisocyanates, as dilution solvents
