CNSL Benefits
Fast cure speeds
The phenolic backbone of cardanol helps accelerate the chemical crosslinking process, even at low temperatures. Whether for ambient or force-cure applications, our solutions can improve efficiency and promote quick return to service.
Hydrophobicity
The inherent hydrophobicity of CNSL-based products enables excellent adhesion to wet surfaces and delivers outstanding water resistance during and after cure. This translates to strong hydrolytic stability, ensuring long-term bond integrity in moisture-rich environments.
Corrosion protection
Cardolite’s CNSL-based curing agents deliver outstanding corrosion protection in both atmospheric and immersed conditions. Their natural water resistance and strong surface adhesion help adhesives last longer.
Excellent adhesion
With over 40 years of experience developing solutions for challenging substrates, Cardolite’s CNSL-based products deliver strong adhesion, even on non-blasted, wet, or oil-contaminated surfaces.
Chemical and thermal shock resistance
Designed for durability, specialty CNSL-based products offer excellent chemical and thermal resistance to deliver anti-aging performance in even the most demanding environments.
Balanced mechanical properties
The long aliphatic side chain of cardanol helps provide toughness and flexibility to minimize the risk of cracking, chipping, or deformation in dynamic or high-stress applications.
