   * Hybridur® 870 and 878 Polymer Dispersions-Novel, NMP-Free Hybrid Resins for High-Performance Coatings
New Hybridur 870 and 878 dispersions are waterborne resins that combine acrylic and urethane polymers in an interpenetrating network that combines the abrasion and chemical resistance of a polyurethane dispersion with the affordability of an acrylic. When hardness is a priority, choose Hybridur 878 dispersion.

   * Ancamine® 2579 Epoxy Curing Agent—Perfect for industrial floor coatings that require chemical resistance and non-yellowing properties.
Ancamine 2579 curing agent yields coating formulations with low color and excellent color stability. It offers best-in-class non-yellowing properties while maintaining the outstanding chemical resistance expected from cycloaliphatic polyamines. Plus, it exhibits good resistance to water spotting and carbamation.

   * Ancamide® 2634 Epoxy Curing Agent—A low cost curing agent that will improve barrier properties for heavy-duty coatings.
It is a modified polyamide curing agent designed for use in two-component solvent-borne epoxy coatings where high performance and cost effectiveness are key requirements. It offers high corrosion and chemical resistance along with good heat resistance, cathodic disbondment resistance and good adhesion.

   * Anquamine® 287 epoxy curing agent for cementitious epoxy flooring
Anquamine 287 curative can be used with a liquid epoxy resin and cement containing aggregates to formulate a self-leveling grade or trowel grade flooring system with the following advantages over urethane-based coatings: 50% reduction in time for foot traffic due to quick hardness development, longer pot life and better moisture vapor permeability.

   * Anquawhite™ 100 Curing Agent for epoxy coatings demanding a clear coat in high build with color stability.
The only waterbased epoxy curative that dries to a c completely clear finish at any thickness…and maintains color stability. Because it is waterborne, it is environmentally friendly. But it is also tough, with excellent resistance to stains, acid, graffiti and impact. Ideal for concrete coatings, top coatings, stone flooring, parquet floors and lacquers. In fact, any surface anywhere.
