Product Family
Aliphatic Reactive Diluents
This largest group of Reactive Diluents usually delivers excellent cured properties. They are used in most of the major epoxy industry segments. We offer four groups - Mono-Functional, Di-Functional, Tri-Functional and Multi-Functional Glycidyl-Ethers.
Tri-Functional Glycidyl-Ether (TGE)
These diluents have a higher viscosity than the Mono and Di variants. Most TGEs increase cross-link density, making it an excellent choice when retention of properties at high temperature and improved chemical resistance are critical.
