Evonik Epoxy Curing Agent UR-D – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary function of UR-D in epoxy systems?

A: UR-D is a specialty amine-based curing agent designed to enable rapid ambient- or low-temperature cure of epoxy resins, delivering excellent chemical resistance, adhesion, and mechanical performance in demanding industrial coatings and adhesive formulations.


Q2: Is UR-D suitable for food-contact or potable water applications?

A: UR-D is not pre-qualified for direct food-contact or potable water applications. Formulators must conduct full regulatory evaluation—including migration testing and compliance verification—based on final cured system composition, intended use conditions, and applicable regional regulations.


Q3: How does UR-D compare to conventional aliphatic amines in terms of pot life and reactivity?

A: UR-D offers extended working time (pot life) at ambient temperature compared to highly reactive aliphatic amines, while still enabling efficient cure without forced heating—making it well-suited for large-part coating or on-site adhesive applications where controlled processing is critical.


Q4: Can UR-D be used with standard DGEBA-type epoxy resins?

A: Yes, UR-D demonstrates broad compatibility with conventional liquid and solid bisphenol-A and bisphenol-F epoxy resins. Optimal performance is achieved when resin selection, stoichiometry, and application conditions are aligned during formulation development.
