Introduction

Shunchang-03 crosslinking agent is a commercial grade of Hexamethoxymethylmelamine supplied in liquid form. It is a versatile crosslinking agent for a wide range of polymeric materials, both organo-soluble and water borne. Shunchang-03 is soluble in most commonly used organic solvent but solubility in water is limited. The polymeric materials should contain either hydroxyl or amide groups. The reaction of Shunchang-03 with hydroxyl, carboxyl and amide functionalities on other polymers is typically catalyzed with strong acid because of its high extent of alkylation. The polymeric materials would include alkyds, polyesters, acrylic, epoxy, urethane, and cellulosics. Shunchang-03 is a very effective crosslinking agent because of its high functionality and low tendency to self condensation. In particular, it can provide films with high flexibility and formability when
used with polyesters.
