Waterborne Coatings

Waterborne epoxy resins and curing agents combine epoxy adhesion and protective performance with water-based processing, offering a practical route to lower-solvent coating systems for concrete, flooring, and industrial applications.

PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

Waterborne Coating Systems: Material Selection Priorities

Waterborne epoxy technology offers more than a different application medium. Properly formulated systems can combine strong substrate adhesion, reduced solvent dependence, practical application, consistent curing, and durable film performance for concrete and industrial coatings.

Water-Based, Lower-Solvent Formulation

Waterborne epoxy technology reduces reliance on conventional organic solvents and supports lower-emission coating formulation strategies.

Low Odor & Improved Application Comfort

Water-based processing can reduce solvent odor during application, making it particularly suitable for indoor, commercial, and other odor-sensitive environments.

Strong Adhesion to Concrete

Selected waterborne epoxy systems provide strong adhesion to concrete, including applications involving damp or moisture-affected substrates.

Consistent Cure in Humid Conditions

Selected curing technologies maintain practical cure performance under humid and cooler application conditions.

Good Film & Surface Performance

Proper resin and curing-agent selection supports uniform film formation, smooth appearance, pigment acceptance, and consistent coating quality.

Versatile Coating Applications

Waterborne epoxy systems can be formulated for primers, sealers, flooring, pigmented coatings, concrete protection, and industrial protective coatings.
