Description

Lay-up resin.

A general purpose resin designed for a variety of non-critical and industrial applications. Designed for hand laminating and would normally be used with chopped strand mat. Notably, it features low styrene emissions and quickly saturates reinforcements, making it efficient and user-friendly.

 

  • Size: 2.5kg
  • Pot life: 15°C 42 minutes / 20°C 22 minutes / 25°C 17 minutes
  • Mix thoroughly, preferably with a low shear mixer to avoid air entrapment. Let it sit briefly to restore its thixotropic properties.
  • Use Catalyst M (or Butanox M50) at a 1% ratio, ensuring complete blending into the resin.
  • Technical Data Sheet
  • Safety Data Sheet

 

Applications

  • Industrial Manufacturing: Ideal for producing a wide range of non-critical industrial components where high performance is not crucial.
  • Construction Materials: Suitable for creating various construction-related materials and products.
  • Reinforced Plastics: Used in the production of reinforced plastic products that do not require high chemical resistance.
  • General Fabrication: Applicable in general-purpose fabrication tasks, including the creation of prototypes and moulds.

 

Benefits

  • Low Styrene Emissions: Reduces environmental impact and improves safety for workers by minimizing styrene emissions during application.
  • Efficient Saturation: Rapidly wets out reinforcements, ensuring a thorough and consistent application, which enhances the overall quality of the final product.
  • Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of industrial and general-purpose applications, offering flexibility in use.
  • Optimal Performance at Room Temperature: Performs best when used at standard room temperatures, making it practical for most workshop environments.
  • Reliable Curing: The recommended catalyst, Catalyst M or Butanox M50, ensures reliable curing times, which can be adjusted based on temperature to meet specific needs.

 

Always consult the safety guidelines and the technical data sheet before using General Purpose Polyester Resin to ensure safe and effective application. Proper handling and usage practices are essential to maintain safety standards in the workplace.
