For polyester and vinyl ester metered mix machines typically have a large pneumatic resin piston pump and a small catalyst pump slaved to an arm off the main ram.
Mixing ratio for vinyl ester resin.
It is meant for a room temperature cure.
Vinyl ester resin derakane momentum 411 350 epoxy vinyl ester resin is based on bisphenol a epoxy resin and provides resistance to a wide range of acids alkalis bleaches and organic compounds for use in many chemical processing industry.
The weight of mekp 925 is 1 125 grams per cc.
The styrene in the polyester or vinyl ester resin will melt it.
30 drops is approximately equal to one cc.
One gallon of polyester resin weighs approximately 9 2 lbs.
It is a solution of methyl ethyl ketone peroxides and cumyl hydroperoxide in phlegmatizer.
Try to store the resin in a cool dry place or refrigerate do not freeze it to extend the life of the resin.
Catalyst chart for polyester resin gel coat and vinyl ester marine resins.
When using vinyl ester resin be sure to use it quickly after purchasing.
Methyl ethyl ketone peroxide mekp is an organic peroxide used in the marine industry.
Using drops for catalyst measurement is only an estimate.
It is typically used between 1 25 to 1 75 1 2 3 ounce to 2 1 3 ounces per gallon.
There is a choice of three different hardeners.
It is important to note that of the three vinyl ester resin will provide the highest corrosion resistance temperature resistance and elongation toughness.
Vinyl ester has a shelf life of 3 months.
Mekp is also used with gel coats.
Vinyl ester resins and polyester resins are very close in molecular composition.
By making adjustments to where the catalyst pump is pinned the stroke and thus the catalyst ratio can be adjusted.
The speed of hardener chosen depends.
Resins that have duratec in their name require a 2 mix ratio 2 2 3 ounces per gallon.
Fast medium and slow.
Resin has a short shelf life.
Our epoxy resins come in either a 2 1 or 4 1 mixing ratio.
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.
Oz fluid ounce.
The higher percentage by weight.
Mekp is a liquid polymerization initiator for the room temperature cure of specialized unsaturated polyester and vinyl ester resins.
You can mix it 1 to 2 by weight.
It is typically used between 1 25 to 1 75 1 2 3 ounce to 2 1 3 ounces per gallon.
Epoxy resin should be used.
One gallon of gelcoat weighs approximately 10 5 lbs.
Resins that have duratec in their name require a 2 mix ratio 2 2 3 ounces per gallon.
