Biobased products and reactive diluents

The Epilox® G-Series includes Bisphenol A and Bisphenol F epoxy resins, as well as reactive diluents that contain a bio-based carbon content. For this, bio-based epichlorohydrin is used in production, which is based on glycerin and self-manufactured at the site of LEUNA-Harze GmbH. The glycerin used is a by-product of biodiesel production. The bio-based epoxy resins and reactive diluents offer the same mechanical properties, chemical resistances, and processing characteristics as the corresponding Epilox® analogs. Therefore, use in existing applications is possible in most cases without modification or adjustment of the production process.
