KP-4055 isusually cross linked with HMM Melamine resins. The addition of HMMM is usually between 15 – 30% on solid basis. Incorporation of acid catalyst e.g. Para toluene sulphonic acid promotes the curing. 1% to 5% of acid catalyst on Melamine solids is recommended.

The product has excellent pigment wetting properties and high yield pigment concentrates can be formulated.

CURING SCHEDULES :

Coil Coating finishes based on KP-4055 can be cured using a peak metal temperature of 232°C - 240°C. For Metal Decorating, a cure schedule of 10 minutes at 160 -200°C depending on requirements is recommended; cure response will increase with temperature, but flexibility may be reduced with high levels of catalyst. For General Industrial applications
a baking schedule of 30 minutes at 150°C will be suitable.		 Metal Decorating: 80: 20 KP-4055 Curing of 10 minutes at 160 - 200 is recommended. Aromatic hydrocarbons are recommended.
General Industrial enamels: 70 : 30 to 80 : 20 on solids with hexamethoxymethyl melamine resin or partly methylated melamine with 2% PTSA catalyst on amino levels. Baking of 30 minutes at 150 C is recommended. Blend of aromatic hydrocarbon/ alcohol are suggested

STORAGE :

Keep away from heat source & direct sunlight. Avoid temp.more than 30 degree C.
