Evonik AMICURE UR2T Urea Curing Agent – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of AMICURE UR2T in epoxy systems?

A: AMICURE UR2T is a latent urea-based curing agent designed to provide controlled reactivity and extended pot life for epoxy resins, enabling stable one-component formulations that cure efficiently upon heating.


Q2: At what temperature range does AMICURE UR2T typically initiate and complete cure?

A: Cure initiation generally begins above 120 °C, with full crosslinking achieved within typical industrial bake cycles ranging from 130 °C to 160 °C — exact profile depends on formulation thickness, thermal mass, and desired mechanical development.


Q3: How does AMICURE UR2T compare to conventional dicyandiamide (DICY) in terms of storage stability and handling?

A: AMICURE UR2T offers improved physical stability and reduced dust generation compared to DICY, with lower hygroscopicity and consistent particle morphology — supporting reliable metering and long-term shelf life under dry, ambient conditions.


Q4: Which epoxy resin types are most commonly paired with AMICURE UR2T?

A: It is widely used with standard bisphenol-A and bisphenol-F liquid and solid epoxy resins, as well as novolac epoxies — particularly where balanced latency, low volatility, and good adhesion to metals or composites are required.


Q5: Is AMICURE UR2T suitable for applications requiring low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions?

A: Yes — as a non-volatile, solid curing agent with negligible vapor pressure at room temperature, AMICURE UR2T supports low-VOC and high-solids epoxy formulations compliant with modern industrial emission guidelines.
