Features & Benefits

Properties

Due to their relative low melting point Araldite® GT 7071 N yield some tendency to cake while in storage. The formulated coatings however shows excellent performances like:

  • Outstanding adhesion to a variety of substrates, e.g. metals, concrete, wood etc.
  • Optimal flexibility
  • High impact strength
  • Good allround chemical and corrosion resistance

Applications & Uses

Compatible Substrates & Surfaces
Application

Araldite® GT 7071 N designed for use in high performance protective and decorative coating systems. Such coatings can be applied in the field of:

  • Maintenance coatings
  • Marine finishes (Shop primer)
  • Tank linings
  • Floor finishes
  • Interior pipe coatings
  • Concrete coatings
  • Zinc rich primers as intermediate or top coats

When cured with polyamines, polyamidoamines, or other adducts for the formulation of solvent-containing coatings, these coantings cure at ambient temperatures.
