The vinylester resin combines the positive properties of an acrylic and epoxy resins. Like all acrylic resins, it can be used with the hardening powder (REF 70.805.0XX.0X). After curing, the casting is similar to that of an epoxy resin.
Application
Laminating resin for lightweight, thin-walled and very stable components
Material
Vinylester resin
Processing
Store at a max. temperature of 35 °C, always in tightly sealed containers, recommended temperature: 15 – 20 °C
Protect from direct sunlight
Use 1 – 3 g hardener REF 70.805.0XX.0X for 100 g resin, depending on reinforcement, for curing
Adding approx. 2 g coloring paste REF 70.699.200.XX, black color shortens pot time
Weigh all components and mix thoroughly
Curing is gradual and begins at the areas with the highest concentration of resin as well as the most carbon fiber
Heat the laminate in a hot-air oven at approx. 80 °C for 2 – 3 hours is possible, this increases the strength by 3 – 5 %. After this time, curing is complete and final strength is achieved
