Guide Formulations
Build from the basics
Cardolite products enhance epoxy and polyurethane formulations across the coatings, adhesives, composites, and polyurethane foam industries, delivering a unique balance of performance and sustainability.
Our portfolio includes:
- Amine-functional curing agents for ambient-cure, two-component epoxy systems
- CNSL-based epoxy diluents and modifiers designed for one- and two-component epoxy applications
- Polyols and diols that add value to a wide range of polyurethane systems, whether one- or two-component, and serve effectively as binders or in prepolymer synthesis
The formulations provided in this section are intended as starting points for development and have not been optimized for specific applications. Each formulation is accompanied by performance data and sample preparation guidelines to help formulators evaluate and adapt products efficiently.
