MXDA Applications

MXDA is used as an epoxy resin curing agent and is a raw material for paints and adhesives. Because of excellent corrosion resistance and chemical resistance, it is mainly used for anti-corrosion coatings for infrastructural works, marine paints, floor coatings and matrix resin for composite materials. The next major application is as raw material for MX nylon, a gas barrier resin that extends the shelf life of food products.

Epoxy resin curing agent

The use of MXDA-based curing agent in epoxy resin applications have the following characteristics;

1) increased corrosion resistance and chemical resistance and,

2) dry quickly even at low temperatures.

Due to the characteristics of 1), it is used as Heavy duty anticorrosive paint for bridges, tanks and ships’ ballast tanks, and the raw material for floor paints for factories. Due to the characteristic of 2), it is used as a material for painting in cold regions and in the winter season.
The MXDA-based curing agent is also used in the civil engineering and construction fields as an adhesive application. And recently has been expanded to new applications such as components of windmills for electric power generation.

MXDA's new applications

MX nylon

PET Bottles

MX nylon is used for its high gas barrier property.
Food packing
MX nylon is used for its high gas barrier property
MX nylon, synthesized by reacting MXDA with adipic acid is widely used for food packing materials and specialized PET bottles for carbonated beverages because it has high gas barrier properties. The synthesis of MX nylon also has MGC’s proprietary technology and is produced at two bases, one in Japan and the other in the US. We, MSCN are also planning to supply MXDA to our US base for use in MX nylon.
