SINOMER® PM840-M10 is a modified polymercaptan curing agent. When mixed with epoxy resins (such as BER-128/E51 with an EEW of 195) at a 1:1 ratio, it achieves rapid gelation and curing even at low temperatures and in thin films. It demonstrates significant advantages in rapid repair, winter construction, and low-temperature operations. This grade is specifically designed to cure standard epoxy resins within approximately 10 minutes, offering excellent mechanical properties.

Fast Curing & Thin-Film Curing: Excellent curing performance even in thin layers.
Light Color & High Transparency: Cured products exhibit a light color and high clarity.
Low Odor: Improved working environment compared to traditional amine curing agents.
SINOMER® PM840-M10 is widely used as an important rapid epoxy curing agent for rapid bonding, laminating, and casting. It is widely applied in various industries, including:
Handicrafts and jewelry
Electronics and electrical appliances
Civil construction
Composite materials
Photovoltaic (PV) new energy
Mix ratio: 1:1 with standard Bisphenol A epoxy resin (EEW ~195) is recommended as a starting point. Optimize based on specific epoxy grade and performance requirements.
Gel time at 30°C: 10 minutes time (average of 5 tests).
Pot life: short. Plan application accordingly.
Apply within pot life. For thin film applications, ensure even coating.
Cure at ambient temperature. Low temperatures will prolong curing time
