This solventless silicone resin broadens coatings capabilities
A new silicone resin, 2405 Resin, is designed to provide improved flexibility, impact resistance, film build and high-temperature resistance for room-temperature-curing coatings. This solventless methyl methoxy resin, when catalyzed by titanium compounds such as TnBT, cures within 60 minutes at ambient temperatures to form a medium-hard coating with good solvent resistance and high heat resistance, says the manufacturer. — Dow Corning, Midland, Mich.
