Following paper explores innovative flexible epoxy systems designed to address the limitations of two-component (2K) polyurethane coatings, such as toxicity, moisture sensitivity, and high VOC emissions. Unlike 2K polyurethanes, these new epoxy systems offer fast curing, high flexibility, superior adhesion, and excellent mechanical properties with minimal emissions. They incorporate bio-based raw materials for sustainability and are formulated to meet industry demands for rapid return to service. The paper also compares these systems with traditional epoxy and polyurethane coatings, highlighting their performance attributes and environmental benefits.
