formulators. The curing agents feature excellent adhesion to
concrete, rapid hardness development and good handling and concrete
protection properties. They also offer low color and carbamation
resistance for a high aesthetics finish. Since they are waterborne,
Anquamine 721 and 731 emit zero VOCs, and exhibit very low odor.
Anquamine 721 curing agent is ideal for thin film applications such
as concrete primers and paints. Anquamine 731 curing agent is ideal
for high-film build applications such as self leveling floors,
mortars, and grouts. "Anquamine 721 and 731 epoxy curing agents
