Product - JPOXY JX 7012

Description

JPOXY JX 7012 is a thin, clear liquid based on butane diol. You can use it in epoxy coatings, adhesives, and filament winding. It spreads easily and helps the mix stay smooth. As a result, it gives strong, clean surfaces. In addition, it works well in both light and heavy-duty epoxy systems.

• EEW [g/eq] : 130-150
• Viscosity [mPa s] @ 25˚C : 12-25
• Color [Gardner] : ≤17
• Density @ 25˚C [g/cc] : 1.05 – 1.12

• Improved toughness
• Retention of chemical resistance
• Moderate dilution efficiency

• Di functional Aliphatic reactive diluent
• 1-4 Butanediol

A1. It is a di-functional aliphatic reactive diluent used to improve toughness, flow, and flexibility of epoxy formulations. It’s ideal for coatings, adhesives, and filament winding systems.

A2. Di-functional diluents like JX 7012 have two reactive sites, allowing them to become a part of the epoxy network more fully. This enhances mechanical strength and toughness compared to mono-functional types, which primarily reduce viscosity.

A3. Yes, but moderately. It has lower dilution efficiency than mono-functional diluents (like JX 7002), but compensates with better flexibility and crosslink density.

A4. Yes, it blends well with Bisphenol-A/F epoxy resins and a wide range of amine and anhydride hardeners.

A5. Minimal impact. Since it's reactive, it does not evaporate like solvents, and participates in the cure reaction, preserving system integrity.

A6.

• Improved toughness and flexibility
• Retains chemical resistance of cured systems
• Excellent for structural adhesives and high-performance coatings

A7. Yes, especially where mechanical durability and resistance to cracking are required—e.g., composites, tools, and structural bonding.
