GP® 4003 is a second-generation waterborne phenolic resin developed by Georgia-Pacific Chemicals. It is an opaque, white liquid dispersion that incorporates a non-ionic protective colloid. GP 4003 is a heat reactive resin that is intended to replace solvent-based phenolic resins where low Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) emissions are desired. Compound (VOC) emissions are desired.

Product Highlights

GP 4003 resin has a high degree of crosslink density and, when properly cured, produces protective coatings with excellent resistance to solvents and organic chemicals. It exhibits good corrosion resistance and may be useful in coating formulations for applications involving severe exposures. Its resistance to elements such as saltwater, make it an ideal resin for coatings for offshore oilfield platforms, metal fasteners and equipment. Storage life is one year at 50°F (10°C). Freezing or temperatures in excess of 77°F (25°C) for extended periods of time should be avoided.
