Ilva TXW13 is a water-based polyisocyanate hardener designed to crosslink and strengthen Ilva waterborne polyurethane and acrylic coating systems. It increases chemical and mechanical resistance, improves hardness, and enhances durability without significantly affecting gloss or clarity.
TXW13 provides excellent compatibility with Ilva’s range of water-based clear and pigmented coatings, making it suitable for interior applications where low VOC content and strong performance are required.
