What is Epotec YDF 170 Epoxy Resin

Epotec YDF 170 is an unmodified, low-viscosity epoxy resin based on diglycidyl ether of Bisphenol F. Designed for general-purpose use, this resin stands out for its ease of handling and processing due to its naturally low viscosity. Beyond its process ability, YDF 170 offers significantly better chemical resistance when compared to traditional Bisphenol-A-based epoxy resins.

When blended with Bisphenol-A liquid epoxy resins, YDF 170 enhances the system’s stability by reducing the likelihood of crystallization—something commonly seen in pure Bisphenol-A resins. Unlike formulations modified with reactive diluents, which may compromise thermal and chemical resistance, YDF 170 effectively lowers viscosity without sacrificing performance.

This makes it a smart choice for demanding applications where maintaining resin integrity is as important as ensuring ease of use.
