Diacetone acrylamide (DAAM) and adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH) enable a keto-hydrazide crosslinking reaction that offers significant advantages over traditional crosslinking chemistries—especially in waterborne systems.
🔹 Ambient Temperature Curing
No heat required — this system enables crosslinking at room temperature, helping reduce energy consumption and simplifying the production process.
🔹 Excellent In-Can Stability
Thanks to the unique reactivity of DAAM and ADH, emulsions remain stable during storage and transport, preventing premature crosslinking and extending shelf life.
🔹 Key Benefits
• High durability and abrasion resistance
• Improved water and solvent resistance
• Formaldehyde-free for better health and environmental safety
• Versatile compatibility with waterborne coatings, adhesives, and inks
🧪 Application Areas
• Architectural Coatings – High-performance latex paints (e.g., US9115265B2)
• Industrial Coatings – Enhanced chemical/mechanical resistance (e.g., US20160186000A1)
• Adhesives – Stronger environmental resistance (e.g., WO2018063095A1)
• Printing Inks – Improved adhesion and abrasion resistance
• Water-based Drilling Fluids – Better fluid loss control and rheology
• Textiles, Paper Treatment, Lubricants, Polishes, and more
This crosslinking system supports sustainable, high-performance formulations for next-generation materials.
