This Series is dedicated to the widely regarded “Father of Paint Technology” in India, SOLOPOXY is developed based on his innovative flagship technology of High-Performance. Single Pack Epoxy Resins. This novel technology exhibits the performance of 2K Epoxy systems but in the convenience of a single pack air-drying system that employs driers to form a cured film.
Description
SOLOPOXY is specifically engineered for air-drying Universal 1K Epoxy Primers that can be applied to diverse substrates. It is also intelligently designed to be compatible with most commercially available topcoats. Therefore, its versatility enables it to be overcoated by a variety of topcoats including Polyurethanes, 1K/2K Epoxy systems, Alkyds, etc.
SOLOPOXY is a premium, light colored, unique “Epoxy Ether” resin that imparts excellent corrosion resistance to the substrate that it is applied to. With its ability to air dry, its single pack design allows for easy application. Furthermore, this versatile resin allows formulators the flexibility to develop various product lines for 1K/ 2K Epoxy coatings or 2K Epoxy PU-Hybrid coatings.
Applications:
- One pack air-drying Universal Epoxy Primer compatible with most commercially available topcoats
- Modification of standard two-pack epoxy coatings to improve corrosion resistance while reducing final cost of formulation
- Good adhesion to mechanically cleaned surfaces that are usually difficult to adhere to, making it great for maintenance primers and mid coats
- One pack stoving epoxy systems with blocked isocyanates or with MF / UF / phenolic resins
- Universal primer for sea-stock application
Advantages:
- User friendly protective primers and mid coats with one coat application for diverse surfaces (mechanically cleaned) can be developed
- Good adhesion on difficult surfaces such as Mild Steel, Stainless Steel, Galvanized Steel, Aluminum, Cement, Glass as well as over Zinc-rich Epoxy Primer
- Compatible with most commercially available topcoats, thereby allowing overcoats with a variety of resins including Polyurethanes, 1K/2K Epoxy systems, Alkyds, etc.
- Fast drying one pack epoxy systems against chlorinated/vinyl modified rubber can be developed offering excellent corrosion, acid & alkali resistance.
- Corrosion resistance passes 178 hours at 25 – 28 microns DFT as per ASTM B117
In conclusion, Solopoxy is a highly effective single-pack epoxy resin that offers convenience, durability, and strong protection. Its easy application, excellent adhesion, and chemical resistance make it a preferred choice in various industries. Whether used for metal protection, floor coatings, or industrial equipment, Solopoxy ensures long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance. It is an ideal solution for businesses looking for a reliable and efficient epoxy coating without the complexity of two-component systems.
