Desmophen XP 2680 is a 100% solids polyester polyol/amine blend.
Product description
Applications
Desmophen XP 2680 is used as a coreactant with a polyisocyanate in two component polyurethane elastomeric coatings. Coatings based on Desmophen XP 2680 and Desmodur N polyisocyanates are well suited for uses requiring high film build, light stability, and weatherability as well as good chemical and abrasion resistance. Suitable substrates include metal, concrete, wood, plastics, and geotextiles. As with any product, use of Desmophen XP 2680 in a given application must be tested (including but not limited to field testing) in advance by the user to determine suitability.

Solubility / thinnability
Desmophen XP 2680 is typically formulated in a solvent free coating; however, Desmophen XP 2680 is soluble in esters such as ethyl acetate, in ketones such as methyl ethyl acetate, methyl isobutyl ketone, and diacetone alcohol, and in glycol ether esters such as PM acetate for purposes of clean up.
Compatibility
Desmophen XP 2680 is compatible with most aliphatic and aromatic polyisocyanates. It is recommended to be used with Desmodur® XP 2580 or N 3200A to produce durable, elastomeric coatings.
Storage
Desmophen XP 2680 should be stored in tightly sealed original containers and protected from moisture, heat, and foreign materials. The product is hygroscopic. Containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent contamination with moisture and foreign materials. Recommended storage temperature is 0º-50ºC.
Storage time
Desmophen XP 2680 has a shelf life of six months from date of receipt at customer, provided the material is stored in sealed original containers at the recommended storage temperature.
