Reactive Diluent RD 105

Looking to reduce the viscosity of your epoxy resin systems without compromising performance? Reactive Diluent RD 105 by Grasim Industries (EPOTEC) is a high-quality, mono-functional reactive diluent designed to improve flow and flexibility in a wide range of epoxy applications.

At Chemex Chemicals, we are proud to be an authorized distributor of Grasim Industries (EPOTEC) in India, offering genuine products with expert technical support and nationwide delivery.
 
What is EPOTEC RD 105?
EPOTEC RD 105 is a mono-functional reactive diluent based on ortho-Cresol, designed to reduce the viscosity of standard epoxy resins. It is particularly valued for its minimal impact on mechanical and chemical resistance properties, outperforming many other monoepoxide diluents.
 
Unlike aliphatic mono-functional reactive diluents, EPOTEC RD 105 does not adversely affect the reactivity of epoxy systems. This makes it ideal for use in high-performance formulations where viscosity reduction is needed without sacrificing curing behavior or durability.
 
Key Benefits of EPOTEC RD 105:

          Reduces viscosity of epoxy resin systems
          Excellent retention of mechanical properties
          High chemical resistance
          Maintains reactivity with various curing agents
          Improved flow and processing performance
