SILRES® HP 2000 is a reactive aminofunctional methyl phenyl silicone resin supplied as an approximately 90 wt.% solution in xylene. The product is typically used as a curing agent or crosslinker for cycloaliphatic epoxy resins in 2-pack high-solids coatings. It significantly improves the weathering resistance of the coating compared to organic amine curing agents. Such 2-pack epoxypolysiloxane coatings are an isocyanate-free alternative to 2K-polyurethanes as weathering-resistant topcoats.
