Evonik is one of the world leaders in specialty chemicals. The company is active in more than 100 countries around the world. Evonik goes far beyond chemistry to create innovative, and sustainable solutions for customers. At Evonik we work together for a common purpose: We want to improve life today and tomorrow.

The Crosslinkers Business Line offers a broad range of products and competences for coatings and adhesives, as well as for high-performance elastomers and composites. Besides products based on isophorone chemistry, the portfolio contains a full toolbox of amine curing agents for ambient and heat cure applications. The products are mainly used in industrial applications due to the mechanical strength, durability, chemical resistance, and excellent adhesion properties.

Following paper explores innovative flexible epoxy systems designed to address the limitations of two-component (2K) polyurethane coatings, such as toxicity, moisture sensitivity, and high VOC emissions. Unlike 2K polyurethanes, these new epoxy systems offer fast curing, high flexibility, superior adhesion, and excellent mechanical properties with minimal emissions. They incorporate bio-based raw materials for sustainability and are formulated to meet industry demands for rapid return to service. The paper also compares these systems with traditional epoxy and polyurethane coatings, highlighting their performance attributes and environmental benefits.
