Mould Resin P
Hard elastic, good edge strength
Excellent grinding and polishing properties (Shore D-Hardness Ø 75)
Thixotropic (non-drip)
Manufactured in a vacuum, so optimally free of air bubbles and homogeneous
This two-component epoxy resin is coloured black for gel coats (applied thickness 0.5–1 mm) in-mould construction with high edge strength and good polishing properties. Mould resin P is processed and cured at room temperature, in combination with Hardener EPH 161-P a post-curing (with the laminate backing) approx. 15 hours at least 40 °C follows. It can be used as a top layer in conjunction with epoxy resin laminates and laminating ceramics. In contrast to resin and metal systems, the surfaces are polishable. This tooling gel coat is hard-elastic, i.e. not brittle, and exhibits good edge strength.
Consumption: approx. 0.5–1 kg/m²
Processing:
Hardener P:
30 minutes of processing time yielding surfaces resistant to styrene (in combination with film release agent PVA).
Hardener EPH 161-P:
90 minutes of processing time for enhanced heat distortion properties, surfaces not resistant to styrene. Post curing (with the laminate backing) for approx. 15 hours at 60 °C is necessary.
Please order the hardeners P or EPH 161 separately
