Can Polyaspartic Polyurea Resin Be Mixed with Other Resins?

As environmental awareness grows, so does the demand for high-quality coatings. The global coatings industry is evolving towards the principles of "Economy, Ecology, Energy, and Efficiency".

Resins, a key component in coatings, face rigorous performance standards. Polyaspartic polyurea resin, known for its solvent-free, low-viscosity nature, excels in weatherability, corrosion resistance, and abrasion resistance. It's increasingly used in waterproofing, anti-corrosion, and flooring.

But, can it be mixed with other resins?

Yes, provided they are of the same curing type. Common examples include polyurethane resin, hydroxyacrylic resin, fluorocarbon resin, and polysiloxane resin. Proper use often yields synergistic effects. For instance, as an active diluent, it reduces the viscosity of other resins, increases solid content, and lowers VOC emissions. It also enhances film cross-linking density, improving abrasion resistance and tensile strength.

Take acrylic resin, for example. Comprised of methyl methacrylate, acrylic esters, and olefinic monomers, it's a mainstream material for outdoor anti-corrosion topcoats. However, many widely used resins have low solid content, leading to suboptimal film fullness and significant environmental pollution from organic volatiles.

Advances in technology have introduced hydroxypropyl resins with 80% solid content. But their high viscosity and low reactive activity require substantial solvents, limiting practical solid content to 70% and still resulting in significant volatile organic compounds (VOCs).

Our company's solvent-free, low-viscosity polyaspartic resin effectively reduces the viscosity of acrylic resin, decreasing system VOC emissions and increasing drying speed, while also improving the mechanical properties of the coating.

Polyaspartic polyurea resin has many more applications beyond these.
