UNIT

VALUE

Outstanding properties

BTCA has been the most effective crosslinking agent for fabrics from cotton and silk. Cottons treated with BTCA have shown superior durable press performance with high levels of laundering durability. The fabric quality can reach the accomplishment of traditional DP finishing agent with formaldehyde and liquid ammonia. Furthermore, the technique is simple and does not create pollution. Therefore, BTCA is a perfect substitute for DP finishing agent of formaldehyde.

Recommended for resins

Cellulosic fibers. BTCA used as a coadditives in the prepation of lightweight flame resistant cellulose nanofibril sponge-like aerogels via an eco-friendly freeze-drying and post crosslinking method.

Recommended for resins

Crosslinks hydroxy- and epoxy- containing polymers

Recommended for products

Coatings: solvent-borne, automotive refinishing, general industrial. Recommended for high quality durable finishes such as automotive topcoats, exterior can varnishes and coil coatings.

Tips for application

Used as the sole crosslinker in a coating or ink formulation, or it may be used at lower levels in combination with other crosslinkers - such as conventional amino resins or isocynanates - in order to obtain a balance of properties. Addition of low levels of acid catalyst (e.g. 0.5% dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid on binder solids) has been found to improve humidity resistance properties in some systems.

UNIT

VALUE

Recommended for products

SPDP crosslinker is membrane permeable, so crosslinking can be done inside the cells

Tips for application

LC-SPDP crosslinker's reactive moites consist of an N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester that reacts with primary amines, as found in lysine side chains. While on the other end of the LC-SPDP crosslinker molecule pyridinyldisulfide reacts with sulhydryls to yield a reducible disulfide bond which can be reduced with TCEP-HCl or DTT to reverse the crosslinked proteins.

Crosslinking process

Heterobifunctional protein crosslinker with different reactive groups on each end of a spacer arm (i.e., sulfhydryl reactive-amine reactive). Cleavable by Thiols

Arkema

Outstanding properties

The strong carbon-carbon crosslink bond created by the use of Organic Peroxides, it is possible to utilize the full engineering capabilities of these peroxide crosslinkable polymers. Curing EPDM at 185°C, Arkema data suggest that only 2.6 phr of pure Luperox F are required to provide the same level of crosslink density as 4.3 phr of pure Luperox DC

Recommended for resins

Crosslinking agents for polyolefins or engineered rubber compounds. (Low density polyethylene; Ethyl-vinyl acetate; Ethylene-propylene monomers; Chlorinated polyethylene; Butadiene acrylonitrile rubber; Silicone rubber; Styrene butadiene rubber)

Luperox 231XL40 PARAMETER

UNIT

VALUE

Recommended for products

Hoses, wires, tires, rubber seals, etc.

Tips for application

Coagents, or crosslinking activators, are used to increase the crosslinking efficiency of the peroxide. Among the coagents, one can mention sulfur, provided its dosage does not exceed 0.3 phr. Other commonly used coagents comprise: triallylcyanurate/triisoallylcyanurate TAC/TAIC; trimethylolpropanetrimethacrylate TRIM or TMPTM; ethyleneglycoldimethacrylate EDMA; m-phenylene dimaleimide; 1, 2-cispolybutadiene. Recommended dosage of coagents: 1 to 3% related to rubber, typically leads to an increase of hardness and tensile strength, a decrease of the elongation at break and an improvement of the compression set (except with sulfur).

Luperox TBEC PARAMETER

UNIT

VALUE

Outstanding properties

High-energy free radicals that provide both efficient and faster crosslinking of polymers and elastomers at lower processing temperatures compared to the dialkyl class of peroxide. 90% of the final cure using Luperox TBEC is much shorter than using Luperox® 101

Recommended for resins

EVA, EPM, EPDM, PLA, VMQ (methyl vinyl silicone rubber), unsaturated vinyl products

Tips for application

More peroxide decomposes, the viscosity (for example of EVA) in the extruder will increase. This will lead to further heat shear in the barrel and increased work-load on the extruder motor. So the basic concept is to choose your timetemperature profile and screw design to minimize the amount of peroxide decomposition during melt compounding. It is recommended to determine the minimum processing temperature of their polymer system, prior to compounding in this peroxide. If high melt compounding temperatures and/or longer residence times are required to successfully compound the elastomer, a different, more thermally stable organic peroxide, may be required.

Crosslinking process

Luperox TBEC offers the best balance of thermal stability when compounding, along with good crosslinking efficiency and a short cure time when crosslinking.

Recommended for products

Coatings. For use in solvent or water based resins. High reactivity.

Tips for application

CDIs react with carboxylic groups. At pH ≥ 8.5 carboxylic groups are in the inert carboxylate form, therefore: binder formulation at pH ≥8.5 → long potlife, reaction takes place at room temperature, Once the coating is applied, volatile amines evaporate, pH drops and crosslinking reaction starts, 2nd reactive group of multifunctional CDIs is sensitive to water, in this case pot life is up to 12 h. These products should be stored under protective atmosphere, Optimum quantity of CDI must be found out through lab work, but it is usually 3 to 7% on binder formulation, Crosslinking effectivity is evaluated by means of chemical resistance test.

Formulation examples

Due to the high reactivity, curing with CDI type crosslinkers can be done under typical oven conditions used for drying of applied coatings.

Picassian XL-701 PARAMETER

UNIT

VALUE

Problems to avoid

Crosslinking, especially network formation, has the potential to reduce elongation and to increase tensile strength, thus polymer hardness. One must therefore take care not to overdo crosslinking when dealing with flexible substrates. Since the CDI contains several –N=C=N– groups, one CDI molecule can react with carboxylic acid residues on different polymer chains tying them together forming a three-dimensional network. Reaction of carboxylic acid with carbodiimide can be quite fast under ambient or mild thermal curing conditions. Not all resins yield similar good results with polycarbodiimides. Prediction of resistances, based on for example acid number or molecular weight, is not feasible.

Crosslinking process

Due to the high reactivity, curing with CDI type crosslinkers can be done under room temperature or typical oven conditions used for drying of applied coatings. In addition to standard CDI crosslinker chemistry, on offer is also a range of dual reactivity CDI crosslinkers. A second type of reactive groups is attached to the polycarbodiimide in this range. Upon curing, this crosslinker not only reacts with the –COOH groups in the polymer chains, but also two of the reactive groups attached to the separate CDI molecules can couple to form an even denser network structure.

Outstanding properties

Effective due to unique multifunctionality, long pot life, no VOC, low yellowing, none gas generation, low viscosity, low moisture sensitivity

Recommended for resins

Acrylic resin, aliphatic polyester urethane. Polycarbodiimide crosslinking involves mainly the reaction of carboxylic acid residues (–COOH) in acrylic resins or in polyurethane dispersions with carbodiimide (–N=C=N–) groups of the crosslinker. Polycarbodiimides selectively react with carboxylic acid (-COOH) groups in polymer chains. This type of crosslinking reaction results in a classic 3D polymer-crosslinker network.

Recommended for products

Coatings used in nearly all the coating industries in order to improve the performance of the coating. These improvements include wear, abrasion and chemical resistances and toughness. The improved performance originates from the formation of a continuous three-dimensional network, which may be formed by the crosslinker alone, or by reaction of the crosslinker with the binder. Low level of crosslinking best for rubber and leather coating

Since the CDI contains several –N=C=N– groups, one CDI molecule can react with carboxylic acid residues on different polymer chains tying them together forming a three-dimensional network. Reaction of carboxylic acid with carbodiimide can be quite fast under ambient or mild thermal curing conditions. Not all resins yield similar good results with polycarbodiimides. Prediction of resistances, based on for example acid number or molecular weight, is not feasible.

Tips for application

CDIs react with carboxylic groups. At pH ≥ 8.5 carboxylic groups are in the inert carboxylate form, therefore: binder formulation at pH ≥8.5 → long potlife, reaction takes place at room temperature, Once the coating is applied, volatile amines evaporate, pH drops and crosslinking reaction starts, 2nd reactive group of multifunctional CDIs is sensitive to water, in this case pot life is up to 12 h. These products should be stored under protective atmosphere, Optimum quantity of CDI must be found out through lab work, but it is usually 3 to 7% on binder formulation, Crosslinking effectivity is evaluated by means of chemical resistance test.

Polycup 7360 PARAMETER

UNIT

Tips for application

Compatible with cationic and most non-ionic materials. Compatibility with strongly anionic materials may be difficult and should be tested prior to use. To avoid ionic shock, Polycup resins should be diluted to 5% solids or less before addition to anionic systems. To prevent pH shock, the pH of Polycup should be adjusted with an alkali such as ammonium hydroxide to the same level as that of the latex or polymer. Compatibility of Polycup can be improved by addition of sodium sulfate or zinc sulfate at 1-5% by weight. Thermosetting crosslinker that is reactive with amine, carboxyl, hydroxyl, and thiol functionality.

Formulation examples

In carboxylated SBR Latices: Although many SBR latices are "self-crosslinking", Polycup resins can be used beneficially to speed up the rate of wet strength, or "quick grab", of an adhesive made from latex. Addition of as little as 0.5% Polycup solids, based on latex solids, will increase green bond strength of the adhesive, as well as the modulus, tensile strength, and dimensional stability. Reactivity between Polycup and the carboxyl groups may be so rapid that pot-life will be significantly shortened. In sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC): The addition of 5 to 10% Polycup solids to a CMC composition will make it essentially insoluble. In polyvinyl alcohol (PVA): PVA alone does not produce a water-resistant coating. However, a high degree of water resistance can be imparted to PVA coatings and films by adding 5 to 10% Polycup resin solids to PVA solids.

Crosslinking process

Ideal cure conditions will occur at pH 7-9 and temperature at 100-150°C. The level of cure strength may decline as temperature is reduced.

USE & PERFORMANCE Manufacturer

Elkem Blue Star Company

Outstanding properties

Especially designed to give excellent cure performance with Optima Concept components allowing faster running speeds, lower temperature cure and reduced catalyst levels with improved anchorage on various substrates. Allows very low Pt content formulations, excellent reactivity for high speed coating, excellent reactivity for low temperature coating.

Recommended for resins

Low vinyl containing polymers such as Sicolease Poly 365 (Elkem) or Sicolease Poly 368 (Elkem).

Recommended for products

Specifically designed for silicone coaters and liner makers. Self-adhesive labels (particularly for graphic arts and medical grades), other self-adhesive protectors (envelopes, personal care), self-adhesive tapes.

Tips for application

The crosslinkers are responsible for the type of final cured network and have an influence on the end properties of the silicone coating. The hydride group (SiH) of the crosslinker react with the vinyl groups (Vi) on the base polymer in the presence of a catalyst. Elkem Silicones Silcolease OPTIMA crosslinker range influences the speed of cure, silicone anchorage, aged stability of the coating and adhesive interaction potential.

Formulation examples

"Used as a crosslinker for the bath preparation of Silcolease (Elkem polymer) solventless systems in the proportion of 3-12 parts for 100 parts of polymer, and at a Platinum catalyst concentration between 25 and 50 ppm. It is always used with an appropriate polymer and catalyst from the Silcolease range of products. With some Silcolease vinyl polymers, the addition of Silcolease XL 325 to the coating bath will produce a cloudy formulation. Whilst we recommend very thorough mixing as with all our solventless formulations, the hazy appearance of some baths using Silcolease XL 325 will remain permanently, this is normal and to be expected."

Crosslinking process

The hydride group (SiH) of the crosslinker react with the vinyl groups (Vi) on the base polymer in the presence of a catalyst. Crosslinking parameters: 3-12 parts for 100 parts of polymer, and at a platinum catalyst concentration between 25 and 50 ppm

USE & PERFORMANCE Manufacturer

Thermo Fisher Scientific

Outstanding properties

The SM(PEG)n reagents are heterobifunctional crosslinkers with N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester and maleimide groups that allow covalent conjugation of amine- and sulfhydryl-containing molecules. Crosslinkers having polyethylene glycol (PEG) spacers are convenient alternatives to reagents with purely hydrocarbon spacer arms. PEG spacers improve water solubility of reagent and conjugate, reduce the potential for aggregation of the conjugate, and increases flexibility of the crosslink, resulting in reduced immunogenic response to the spacer itself.

Outstanding properties

Eliminates dust production during mixing and allows this material to be used in transparent silicone compounds

Recommended for resins

Silicone and fluorosilicone polymer formulations.

Tips for application

Peroxide systems are more versatile since they can be used to crosslink both saturated and unsaturated polymers, thereby providing a wider selection of elastomers, and more opportunities for cost savings.

Crosslinking process

Organic peroxides work by decomposing to form free radicals when heated. These radicals then couple to create carbon-carbon bonds across polymer chains.

USE & PERFORMANCE Manufacturer

Vanderbilt Chemicals

Outstanding properties

Organic peroxides that are thermally decomposed generate free radicals that consequently create an active site on a polymer backbone. The reaction between two active sites creates a strong link between the polymer chains, forming a polymer network exhibiting very desirable mechanical properties, particularly excellent heat resistance and compression set. Another advantage of using a peroxide cure instead of sulfur vulcanization is the wide range of polymers that can be crosslinked (unsaturated polymers as well as saturated polymers like polyethylene). Due to the nature of the strong carbon-carbon crosslink bond created by the use of organic peroxides, it is possible to use the full engineering capabilities of these peroxide crosslinkable polymers.
