KUKDO SM-690 Epoxy Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary functional role of KUKDO SM-690 in epoxy formulations?

A: KUKDO SM-690 is a reactive 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 KUKDO SM-690 suitable for high-gloss coating applications?

A: Yes — due to its low volatility, good compatibility with common epoxy curing agents, and ability to support excellent film formation, it is frequently selected in premium industrial and decorative coating systems where surface clarity and gloss retention are critical.


Q3: How does SM-690 compare to non-reactive diluents in terms of final cured properties?

A: Unlike non-reactive diluents, SM-690 participates in the curing reaction, helping maintain mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and glass transition temperature (Tg) — making it preferable for structural adhesives and high-performance coatings where long-term durability is required.


Q4: Can SM-690 be used in UV-curable epoxy systems?

A: No — SM-690 is formulated for thermally cured or ambient-cured amine-based epoxy systems. It is not compatible with free-radical UV curing mechanisms and lacks photoreactive functionality.
