Hardener for epoxy resin explained: Key factors for industrial flooring success - Shield Insight Hub
The amount and type of hardener needed depends on the type of epoxy resin being used. Do-it-yourself epoxy paints (different from industrial-grade floor coatings) are often water-based and rely mainly, if not exclusively, on evaporation to harden and dry the final product.
What Is an Epoxy Hardener? Epoxy hardeners, also known as curing agents, are reactive chemicals that crosslink with epoxy resins to form a thermoset polymer network. Without a hardener, epoxy resin remains a viscous liquid and never fully cures.
Epoxy resin formulations can be cured using a variety of curing agent (hardener) chemistries, each offering distinct advantages. Common options include amines, anhydrides, dicyandiamides, dihydrazides ...
