GABRIEL GPM MERCAPTAN EPOXY HARDENERS POLY-FUNCTIONAL MERCAPTAN HARDENERS for FAST CURE of EPOXIES
6
Mercaptans Today Gabriel Performance Products is America’s original and only manufacturer of mercaptan epoxy curing agents
7
Polymercaptan Advantages Rapid Cure of Epoxies Low-Temperature Cure Thin-Film Cure Low Toxicity Light Color Excellent Adhesion 1:1 mix ratio – not critical Acceleration ability with other curatives e.g. amines, polyamides, anhydrides etc.

Cycloaliphatic Epoxy Resins (CER) Features/Benefits - Value Proposition
18
Aliphatic Backbone – Excellent UV Stability Saturated Cyclic Ring – Good Weatherability and Excellent Electrical Properties High Epoxide Content High Crosslink Density High Tg and Heat Distortion Temp. (HDT) No Epichlorohydrin No Hydrolysable Chorine Low Dielectric Constant Excellent Arc-Track Resistance Feature/Benefits - Value
19
Short Chain – Low Viscosity 350cp of GPE- 221 vs. 13000 cp Std Epoxy Resin Easy to handle and enable VOC Free or Low VOC Formulations When combined with Polyols, result in Good Combination of Toughness and Heat-Distortion Temperature Properties No Epichlorohydrin Low Potential for Skin Sensitization Offer latitude to formulate 1K or 2K Products Feature/Benefits - Value
