DIACRON™ FC-1588

1 of 8 products in this brand

DIACRON™ FC-1588 is a polyester resin with excellent solvent solubility. It is a low molecular weight (Mw)-grade of ER-535 and is optimal as a binder for paints and inks. Especially, the use of organic solvents can be reduced because low viscosity high-solid solutions are possible. It improves hardness, heat resistance, toughness, and solvent resistance by using curing agents such as isocyanates and epoxy resins.

 

Features:

  • Low temperature fusion
  • Excellent metal adhesion
  • Excellent pigment dispersion.
  • Can be used with cross-linking agents

 

Benefits:

  • Solvent solubility
  • High solid differentiation
  • Use of biomass raw materials

 

Applications:

  • Solventborne Coating
  • For various types of inks
  • Solventless & High Solids Coating
