Evonik B1370 Isocyanate Curing Agent – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical nature of B1370?

A: Evonik B1370 is a low-viscosity, aliphatic polyisocyanate based on hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI), modified to provide enhanced storage stability and reduced volatility while maintaining excellent reactivity with hydroxyl-functional resins.


Q2: Which resin systems is B1370 typically compatible with?

A: B1370 is designed for use with hydroxyl-terminated acrylics, polyesters, and alkyds in two-component (2K) coatings. It delivers good compatibility, pot life, and film performance—particularly in high-gloss, weather-resistant topcoats for automotive refinish and industrial applications.


Q3: How does B1370 compare to conventional HDI trimer in terms of handling and safety?

A: Due to its tailored molecular structure, B1370 exhibits lower vapor pressure and reduced monomeric HDI content compared to standard HDI trimers, contributing to improved workplace safety and easier handling under ambient conditions—though appropriate PPE and ventilation remain essential during use.


Q4: What is the typical dosage range for B1370 in 2K coating formulations?

A: B1370 is generally used at low concentrations relative to the hydroxyl component—dosage depends on formulation requirements, target NCO:OH ratio, and desired cure profile—but commonly ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight of the total formulation when optimized for performance and pot life.
