ARALDITE® GY 282 is a diglycidylether of bisphenol F. It can be used alone or blended with epoxy resins based on bisphenol A or A/F in combination with polyamine hardeners. It is recommended for solvent-free coatings, impregnation’s, floorings and trowelling compounds applied to steel and concrete substrates. Also, when combined with aromatic diamines, ARALDITE GY 282 is suitable for advanced composite applications manufactured through RTM filament winding.

The reactivity of formulations of ARALDITE GY 282 corresponds roughly to that of unmodified bisphenol A epoxy resins.

The chemical resistance of systems based on ARALDITE GY 282 is similar to that of liquid bisphenol A epoxy resins, and considerably better than that of resins modified with reactive diluents.
