TSCA registration for oxazolidine
One of the Incozol® range of oxazolidines has recently been TSCA registered and is now approved for import and manufacture in the USA.

Incozol K is a latent curing agent that can be used in a wide variety of coating, adhesive and sealant applications. It is particularly advantageous where high build properties are desirable, for example, waterproof coatings and construction sealants.

Incozol® latent curing agents can be used in both one and two component PU systems. In one component systems they are normally used with aliphatic prepolymers. They promote fast through-cure with no CO2 evolution. The curing agents hydrolyse on exposure to moisture, yielding reactive amine and hydroxyl functional groups.

In two component systems they can also be used with aromatic prepolymers or isocyanates.

Incozol K is non-crystallising to -10ºC, which helps reduce the energy costs associated with melting the product. It is fast curing with no evolution of CO2 gas – preventing bubbling, pinholing and downglossing. Also, it can be used as a bi- or tetra-functional curing agent, enabling greater formulation latitude.
