ANCAMINE 2605
Curing Agent
DESCRIPTION
Ancamine 2605 curing agent is a modified cycloaliphatic polyamine intended for use as a room
temperature curing agent for liquid epoxy resin. Based upon Evonik‘s Cycloaliphatic Amines, it offers
exceptional cost in-use economics and a broad balance of chemical resistance and surface appearance
properties. Ancamine 2605 provides high mechanical build, rapid cure and is particularly suitable for lower
temperature use.
