- ▸ Epoxy curing agent: Hardener for flexible, water-compatible epoxy systems.
- ▸ Polyurea/polyurethane: Amine-terminated building block and chain extender.
- ▸ Adhesives & sealants: Reactive amine for flexible bond lines.
- ▸ Hydrophilic systems: Imparts water compatibility from the PEG backbone.
A grade-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — with the complete hazard classification, handling precautions, and transport information — is supplied with every shipment and available on request. Confirm all safety and regulatory details against the SDS for your specific grade.
Polyetheramine ED-2003 is an amine-terminated polyether diamine built on a predominantly polyethylene-glycol backbone, which makes it water-soluble and hydrophilic; the grade number tracks approximate average molecular weight. It is a highest-molecular-weight grade in the series with the longest, most flexible segments and lowest amine content that acts as a reactive epoxy curing agent and chain extender. Established applications are in polyurea and polyurethane systems, adhesives, sealants and protective coatings.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Polyetheramine ED-2003 used for?
Polyetheramine ED-2003 is a water-soluble amine-terminated polyether diamine used as a reactive epoxy curing agent and chain extender. Established applications include polyurea and polyurethane systems, adhesives, sealants, and protective coatings.
Why is ED-2003 water-soluble?
It is built on a predominantly polyethylene-glycol (PEG) backbone, which makes it hydrophilic and water-compatible. This imparts water compatibility from the PEG backbone to systems formulated with it.
How does ED-2003 differ from ED-1200?
ED-2003 is the highest-molecular-weight grade in the ED series, with the longest, most flexible segments and the lowest amine content. ED-1200 is shorter and higher in amine content, so ED-2003 gives more flexibility per equivalent of amine.
What is the chemical name for Polyetheramine ED-2003?
It is an amine-terminated polyether diamine on a predominantly PEG backbone; the grade number tracks approximate average molecular weight. Reference the grade name on any CoA or SDS request to confirm the exact material.
How is Polyetheramine ED-2003 supplied in bulk?
It is supplied as a bulk amine in standard packaging such as drums, totes, and IBCs. Request a bulk quote with your target volume for current pricing, lead time, and CoA/SDS.
