VESTANAT® IPDI eCO

VESTANAT® IPDI eCO by Evonik is a crosslinking agent which contains 75% renewable carbon per mass balance, that offers a significant reduction in global warming potential (GWP) and CO₂ footprint compared to its fossil-based counterpart.

• It is a low viscosity liquid with a weak but specific odor and is recommended for the manufacture of light stable and weather-resistant polyurethanes.
• With suitable choice of the co-reactants (polyols) it imparts good mechanical properties and high resistance to yellowing & chemicals.
• It exhibits a selectivity in urethane reactions like prepolymer synthesis which leads to excellent reproducibility, selective product formation, narrow molecular weight distribution and low concentration of residual diisocyanate monomer.
• It shows excellent compatibility with other resins and is used in solvent-free, PUR RIM technology and waterborne or hot-melt adhesives and sealants.
• It is also used in radiation curable urethane acrylates when low concentration of reactive diluents or co-solvents are required
• It is designed for use in moisture curing prepolymers and solvent borne, high-molecular polyurethanes that provides heavy-duty and long-term flexibility combined with light-fastness.
• The shelf life of VESTANAT® IPDI eCO is 1 year.
• It is ISCC PLUS-certified grade.
