Cardolite® NT - 3000 is an aliphatic monoglycidyl ether containing alkyl chains, predominantly C12 and C14 in length.

Cardolite® Lite 2020 is a low viscosity multipurpose resin modifier designed for use in coatings, adhesives, and other applications. It features a long hydrophobic aliphatic side chain of the cardanol molecule, providing excellent early water resistance and corrosion protection. It can be used as an epoxy diluent, allowing for enhanced workability and higher solids in formulations without sacrificing performance properties. It can also be used in alkyds, urethanes, and acrylics.

Cardolite® Ultra LITE 513 is a very light-colored, low-viscosity, monofunctional epoxy reactive diluent designed for coatings, adhesives, and other epoxy applications. The long hydrophobic aliphatic side chain of cardanol gives this product a very low viscosity and provides excellent water resistance, flexibility, and thermal shock resistance. High-viscosity solvent or solvent-free formulations can achieve enhanced workability and higher solids without sacrificing other performance properties using this product.

Cardolite® NC - 513 is a monofunctional reactive epoxy diluent used to increase flexibility, impact resistance, water resistance, and flexural strength. It has low viscosity and volatility, making it ideal for formulating solvent-free adhesives. It exhibits good water resistance and reacts completely into the epoxy network, enhancing bond strength.
