Vinyl ester infusion resin.

But this 5 375 inches 135 mm thick fiberglass vinyl ester hatch cover for a flue gas desulfurization installation was successfully produced by kenway corp. Vinyl ester resins are the binary resin systems containing a dimethacrylate monomer from which the cured material gains most of its properties and a reactive monomer such as styrene which acts as a reactive diluent and also takes part in the cross linking reaction. Vinyl ester is formulated for maximum corrosion resistance to most fuels vapors and chemicals. Vinyl ester resin is considered to be a hybrid of polyester and epoxy resins meaning its handling characteristics properties and even price generally fall just between the two.

Comes pre promoted with dma only you will need to add cobalt to suit your application. A nonpromoted low viscosity corrosion resistant vinyl ester resin for use in vacuum infusion and rtm applications. Infusion vinyl ester resin 5 gallons features great physical properties and low viscosity for infusing. Vinyl ester resin is considered a hybrid of polyester and epoxy meaning its handling characteristics properties and price generally fall just between the other two.

Historically vacuum infusion of thick laminates has been avoided because of the likelihood of uncontrolled or runaway exotherm. Infusion vinyl ester 5 gallons. Normal viscosity for vinyl esters is less than polyester about 500 centipoise when cut in styrene monomer. This vinylester infusion resin is a low viscosity corrosion resistant resin for use in various applications where added strength and heat resistance are needed but without the cost of an epoxy.

Vinylester resin will flow and infuse very well just like a polyester but will have added properties such as higher temperature resistance 210 f. Augusta maine using a resin modified with new initiator chemistry developed by arkema philadelphia pa.
