Incozol LV is a reactive diluent designed to help producers of polyurethane coatings attain low VOC systems. It is used in the formulation of two component coatings for example, automotive refinish and OEM coatings. Other uses include high solids PU coatings for boats, industrial maintenance, aircraft, anti-graffiti lacquers and waterproof coatings.

Product Highlights

Incozol LV was developed to replace a portion of the polyol component enabling the formulation of high solids, low VOC coatings. In addition, it acts as a moisture scavenger preventing the generation of CO2 gas which would lead to defects in the final film.

Incozol LV was found to have excellent compatibility with the HDI biuret and helped to maintain the application viscosity, chemical resistance and satisfy the VOC requirements. Use of Incozol LV in the formulation helped provide the following advantages for the company’s coatings:

  • VOC compliance
  • Excellent chemical resistance
  • Excellent compatibility with both the polyols and isocyanates
  • Further protection against potential moisture contamination
  • Excellent application viscosity
  • Maintains the integrity of the coating film without comp omising performance
