Evonik DYNAPOL LH 898 Saturated Polyester Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application area for DYNAPOL LH 898?

A: DYNAPOL LH 898 is specifically designed as a high-performance saturated polyester resin for use in solvent-based and high-solids coil coating systems, where excellent gloss retention, weather resistance, and substrate adhesion are required.


Q2: Is DYNAPOL LH 898 suitable for food-contact applications?

A: DYNAPOL LH 898 is not pre-qualified for direct food contact. Its suitability for such applications depends on final formulation, processing conditions, and regulatory review by the end-user — Evonik recommends thorough compliance assessment with applicable regional food contact regulations before use.


Q3: How does DYNAPOL LH 898 differ from unsaturated polyester resins?

A: Unlike unsaturated polyesters, DYNAPOL LH 898 contains no carbon–carbon double bonds in its backbone, resulting in inherently higher chemical stability, improved UV resistance, and reduced susceptibility to yellowing — making it especially well-suited for demanding exterior coil coating applications.


Q4: What curing agents are typically used with this resin?

A: DYNAPOL LH 898 is formulated to react efficiently with melamine-formaldehyde crosslinkers, particularly high-alkylated types, under standard coil coating cure schedules (e.g., 220–250 °C for short dwell times). Compatibility with alternative amino resins or blocked isocyanates should be verified experimentally.


Q5: Can DYNAPOL LH 898 be blended with other polyester or acrylic resins?

A: Yes, DYNAPOL LH 898 exhibits good compatibility with many conventional polyester and acrylic resins commonly used in coil coatings, enabling formulators to tailor performance attributes such as flexibility, hardness, and flow — however, blend stability and film properties should be confirmed through laboratory evaluation.
