KUKDO KD-407 Epoxy Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary functional role of KD-407 in epoxy formulations?

A: KD-407 is a reactive liquid diluent designed to reduce viscosity and improve processability of standard bisphenol-A or bisphenol-F based epoxy resins without significantly compromising crosslink density or thermal performance.


Q2: Is KD-407 suitable for high-gloss, low-VOC coating systems?

A: Yes — as a reactive diluent, KD-407 becomes part of the polymer network during cure, contributing to VOC reduction while maintaining film integrity, hardness, and chemical resistance typical of high-performance epoxy coatings.


Q3: How does KD-407 compare to non-reactive diluents in terms of final film properties?

A: Unlike solvent-based or non-reactive diluents, KD-407 participates in the curing reaction, helping preserve mechanical strength, adhesion, and long-term durability — especially under thermal or humid service conditions.


Q4: What is the typical dosage range for KD-407 in standard epoxy formulations?

A: Dosage is formulation-dependent, but KD-407 is generally used at low concentrations — typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight relative to the base epoxy resin — to achieve optimal viscosity reduction without adversely affecting reactivity or cured properties.
