Polyester Resin - 18L

Polyester Resin 18L

Product Description

Polyester resin is a durable and versatile material used in conjunction with thermoset resins like epoxy and vinyl ester. It is ideal for decorative projects, castings, and coatings. The curing time ranges from 45 to 60 minutes. It is recommended to use 5 ml of hardener per 100 grams of resin to ensure a homogeneous casting. Specifically formulated for transparent casting projects.

Product Specifications

Instructions for Use

• Add hardener before mixing the resin. Mix the resin and hardener for 2-3 minutes until a homogeneous mixture is obtained.
• During casting, pour in a thin, steady flow to prevent air bubble formation.
• Layer-by-layer casting is preferred over thick castings. Each layer should not exceed a thickness of 1 cm.
• Changing the hardener ratio can negatively affect the resin's performance; excessive hardener usage can cause yellowing, while insufficient usage can lead to delayed curing.
