Erisys GE-22 1,4 Cyclohexanedimetanol diglycidyl ether 14228-73-0 CVC Solvents >> Ethers & Ethers-alcohols Epoxy (EP) ADHESIVE ERISYS ® GE-22 1,4 Cyclohexanedimetanol Diglycidyl Ether Cycloaliphatic Difunctional Epoxy Reactive Diluent ERISYS GE-22, epoxidized cyclohexanedimethanol, is a low viscosity, cycloaliphatic diepoxide. It is intended for use as a reactive diluent for high viscosity epoxy resins. GE-22 is compatible at all concentrations with those resins and resin/ diluent blends can be cured using any epoxy resin curing agent. As a result of its chemical structure, GE-22 is not as efficient in viscosity reduction as the aliphatic monofunctional reactive diluents ERISYS GE-5, GE-6, GE-7, and GE-8. However, the performance properties of epoxy formulations diluted with GE-22 are modified to a lesser degree than those systems containing the aliphatic monofunctional diluents. Depending on concentration, properties such as gel time, strength, and modulus of a GE-22 diluted formulation remain relatively un-changed compared to an undiluted mix (see table and graphs below). The difunctionality of GE-22 helps to produce formu-lations with improved chemical and heat resistance compared to formulations containing monofunctional diluents. The cycloaliphatic nature of GE-22 suggest its use in formula-tions requiring outdoor weathering resistance. Formulations containing ERISYS GE-22 exhibit outstanding creep resis-tance making them ideal for high performance grouts and structural applications. GE-22 improves a formulation's wet-tability. This diluent does not effect the pot life of precata-lyzed epoxy resin/acid anhydride formulations.
