Erisys GS-120 Glycidyl ester of linoleic acid dimer 68475-94-5 CVC Solvent >> Esters >> Other Epoxy Resins Coatings Architectural / Decorative >> Flooring ERISYS ® GS-120 Dimer Acid Diglycidyl Ester ERISYS GS-120 is the diepoxide of a long chain aliphatic dimer acid. GS-120 is expected to find utility as a reactive additive which imparts a degree of flexibility to normally rigid epoxy systems. The low viscosity of GS-120 will reduce the viscosity of your formulation, allowing for increased filler loading and improved handling. GS-120 will increase toughness and tensile elongation, and improve impact and thermal shock resistance. Elongations of greater than 100% can be achieved. Improvements in tensile shear and peel resistance will also be realized. These benefits are achieved, however, with some sacrifice in elevated temperature and chemical resistance. GS-120 is typically used with liquid DGEBA resins, such as EPALLOY 7190. In combination with other resins the possibility of forming incompatible blends exists and, therefore, the use of GS-120 may have to be avoided for some applications. EPALLOY 7190/GS-120 blends can be cured with all typical epoxy curing agents except epoxy/amine adducts, where incompatible cured formulations may result.
