Never Stop to Pursuit High Performance | Technical Control Upgrade its Carbodiimide Crosslinker

April 27, 2023

As the awareness of sustainable development continues to deepen, more consumers start to care about the environmental impact of products. Many new eco-friendly products could be found on the market, and more coating companies tend to use water-based products to reduce their impact on the environment. In the water-based coating formulation system, it is generally necessary to add a crosslinking agent to improve its performance.

 

Given the advantages of eco-friendly, high reactivity and stable pot life, carbodiimide crosslinker is considered the best choice for eco-friendly crosslinkers. Technical Control pioneered the introduction of carbodiimide crosslinker (Carbolinker D30) a few years ago and has been well-recognized by customers.

 

Our R&D team continues to use cutting-edge technologies, hoping to achieve sustainable product development while further improving product quality and performance. After constant testing, the carbodiimide crosslinker formula was upgraded. The optimized second-generation product(Carbolinker D40) has higher effective active ingredients. Compared with the first-generation product, it has significantly improved in the aspect of chemical resistance, anti-stain, wear-resistance, and improving the toughness and adhesion of surface coatings.

 

Advantages of Carbodiimide Crosslinker

VOC-free, no gas released under standard application;

Low cross-linking temperature and can be cured at room temperature

Longer warehouse storage period;

Longer pot life of the mixture (recommended for pH>8 formulations);

High compatibility with polymer dispersions without reducing gloss;

Non-yellowing;

Significantly improved adhesion to difficult-to-adhere substrates;

Block color migration;

Can be used for top coat.
