ANCAMINE® 2849 is a modified aliphatic amine designed for use with bisphenol F and epoxy novolac resins.
ANCAMINE® 2849 provides excellent resistance to 98% sulfuric acid up to 60°C and also provides outstanding resistance to crude oil up to 75-80°C.
ANCAMINE® 2849 is designed for use in coating applications that require resistance to acids in industrial coating applications like interior tank linings, secondary containment coatings and wastewater linings.
Typical Applications
- Industrial coatings: can be used in a broad application range in both metal and concrete epoxy coatings
- Protective coatings: provides excellent protection against corrosion and chemicals such as acids, bases, or organic solvents
- Tank linings: provides excellent protection against corrosion and chemicals such as acids, bases, or organic solvents
Benefits at a glance
- High chemical resistance: exhibits excellent resistance against exposure or spillage of acids, bases and organic solvents
- Excellent carbamation and water-spotting resistance: provides aesthetic surfaces with minimal defects even at high humidities and low temperatures
- High reactivity: enables fast cure and supports return-to-service on the same day

The Ultimate Curing Agent for Superior Chemical Resistance in Epoxy Coatings
ANCAMINE® 2849 is a specialized curing agent that significantly enhances the properties of epoxy-based coatings and materials. Its exceptional chemical resistance and durability make it a preferred choice for industries that operate in some of the most challenging environments.
ANCAMINE® 2849 is extensively used in the formulation of protective coatings that are applied to industrial equipment and structures where high chemical resistance to strong inorganic acids or crude oil required, at both ambient and elevated temperature.
In chemical and petrochemical industry, ANCAMINE® 2849 plays a crucial role for formulating coatings for linings for storage tanks, railcars, or pipelines that could be exposed to 98% Sulfuric acid, 37% chloric acid or crude oil to ensure that these assets can resist the very harsh environment even at elevated temperature. Its robustness makes it suitable for both onshore and offshore applications, where materials are exposed to extreme conditions.
Coatings based on ANCAMINE® 2849 would be also beneficial for use in wastewater applications, secondary containment, industrial flooring, and concrete structures in order to prevent deterioration due to strong chemical exposure.
In short, ANCAMINE® 2849 provides high chemical resistance of coatings for many applications, ensuring the longevity and integrity of the assets.
