Evonik Epoxy Curing Agent Ancamine 2423 – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary chemical class of Ancamine 2423?

A: Ancamine 2423 is a modified aliphatic amine curing agent, designed to offer balanced reactivity, low volatility, and improved handling safety compared to conventional aliphatic amines.


Q2: Is Ancamine 2423 suitable for ambient-cure epoxy systems?

A: Yes — it is specifically formulated for ambient- or low-temperature cure applications, delivering good through-cure and mechanical properties without forced heating, making it well-suited for coatings, adhesives, and repair compounds applied in field conditions.


Q3: How does Ancamine 2423 compare to standard DETA or TETA in terms of odor and skin sensitization potential?

A: Ancamine 2423 exhibits significantly reduced volatility and amine odor, and its modified structure lowers inherent skin sensitization risk relative to unmodified polyamines like DETA or TETA — though appropriate industrial hygiene practices (gloves, ventilation) remain essential during handling.


Q4: What types of epoxy resins is Ancamine 2423 typically compatible with?

A: It demonstrates broad compatibility with standard liquid and solid bisphenol-A and bisphenol-F epoxy resins, as well as many novolac and cycloaliphatic epoxies — formulation optimization is recommended to achieve desired pot life, cure speed, and final film properties.


Q5: Can Ancamine 2423 be used in high-solids or solvent-free epoxy formulations?

A: Yes — its low viscosity and favorable compatibility support its use in high-solids and 100%-solids epoxy systems, contributing to low VOC content while maintaining workable pot life and efficient crosslinking.
