Description

JPOXY JH 1027 is a special liquid that helps glue things together. It is very thin, so it spreads easily. Moreover, it works well in hot places like India. You can use it for strong repairs and coatings. It also dries fast and stays strong. As a result, it is great for tough jobs in humid weather.

Q1. What is JH 1027?

A1. JH 1027 is a Tetraethylenepentamine (TEPA)-based curing agent used in epoxy systems. It is a low-viscosity, solvent-free, and highly reactive ethyleneamine hardener ideal for coatings, sealants, and composite applications.

Q2. What are the key features of JH 1027?

A2. 

  • Based on TEPA (Tetraethylenepentamine)
  • Low viscosity: 10–25 mPa·s for excellent flow and wetting
  • Very reactive amine structure
  • Provides strong adhesion and fast cure at room temperature
  • Good chemical and mechanical resistance
  • Light color (Gardner ≤1) for broad formulation use
Q3. What is it used for?

A3. 

  • Protective epoxy coatings
  • Adhesive sealants for civil or industrial applications
  • Epoxy composites, laminates, and tooling
  • Primers and flooring systems where fast reactivity is desired
Q4. How does TEPA compare to TETA, IPDA, or D230?

  Q5. Is JH 1027 suitable for outdoor applications?

A5. While JH 1027 provides strong mechanical and chemical performance, its UV and blush resistance are lower, so topcoating or additives may be necessary for long-term outdoor exposure.

Q6. Can JH 1027 be blended with other hardeners?

A6. Yes. TEPA is often blended with other curing agents like cycloaliphatic amines (e.g., IPDA) or polyamidoamines to modify cure rate, improve flexibility, or reduce blushing.

Q7. What epoxy resins are compatible with JH 1027?

A7. JH 1027 is compatible with:

  • Unmodified BPA resins like JR 3010
  • Modified BPA/BPF resins like JR 3018 or JR 3253
  • Novolac resins like JR 5838 for high chemical resistance
Q8. What is the recommended mix ratio?

A8. For an epoxy resin with EEW ~190, use approximately 12–14 phr of JH 1027. Always confirm with lab trials based on the application.

Q9. What precautions should be taken while handling?

A9.

  • Use gloves, goggles, and proper ventilation
  • Avoid skin and eye contact
  • Do not mix with acids or oxidizing agents
  • Follow local regulations for safe disposal
Q10. What is the shelf life of JH 1027?

A10. It remains usable for 12 months when stored in a cool, dry place in sealed original containers away from sunlight and moisture.
