Low-viscosity, solvent-free amine adduct designed for easy incorporation into epoxy resin systems.
Provides excellent chemical resistance—particularly to alkalis, solvents, and mild acids—after full cure.
Enables rapid ambient-cure performance with good pot life (typically 4–6 hours at 25°C).
Delivers high crosslink density, resulting in superior hardness, abrasion resistance, and adhesion to steel and concrete substrates.
Formulated with low volatility and reduced amine odor, supporting safer handling in industrial environments.
Industrial floor coatings for warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and pharmaceutical cleanrooms.
Protective linings for concrete tanks, secondary containment structures, and wastewater infrastructure.
Heavy-duty maintenance coatings for offshore platforms, pipelines, and marine equipment.
High-performance anti-corrosive primers and topcoats in structural steel protection systems.
Electrical insulation coatings for transformers, busbars, and power distribution components.

Q1: What is the primary function of ARADUR 3230 CI in epoxy coating systems?
A: ARADUR 3230 CI is a cycloaliphatic amine-based curing agent designed to provide rapid ambient-cure performance, excellent chemical resistance, and low viscosity for easy incorporation into high-solids and solvent-free epoxy coatings used in industrial maintenance and protective applications.
Q2: Is ARADUR 3230 CI suitable for food-contact or potable water applications?
A: ARADUR 3230 CI is not specifically formulated or certified for direct food-contact or potable water applications. Formulators must conduct full regulatory evaluation—including compliance with applicable local and regional regulations—before use in such end uses.
Q3: How does ARADUR 3230 CI compare to traditional aromatic amine curing agents in terms of color stability and UV resistance?
A: As a cycloaliphatic amine, ARADUR 3230 CI offers significantly improved color stability and resistance to yellowing under UV exposure compared to aromatic amines, making it well-suited for topcoats and applications where long-term gloss and appearance retention are critical.
Q4: What are typical handling and storage recommendations for ARADUR 3230 CI?
A: Store in original, tightly sealed containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from moisture, strong oxidizers, and direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure to humid conditions may cause surface cloudiness or crystallization, which typically redissolves upon gentle warming and mixing.
Q5: Can ARADUR 3230 CI be used in combination with other curing agents or accelerators?
A: While ARADUR 3230 CI is optimized as a standalone curing agent, limited co-curing with select tertiary amines or latent accelerators may be explored to fine-tune pot life or cure profile—however, all such combinations require thorough formulation testing to ensure compatibility, stability, and final film performance.
