PRF Composite Materials RS-L135
- Chemical Family
- Epoxy & Epoxy Derivatives
PRF Composite Materials RS-L135 exhibits good mechanical properties after curing at room temperature. If high temperature strength is not required, finished products made with the selection of hardeners up to RS-H136 may be used without further heat treatment. Post curing (heat treatment) will further enhance the mechanical properties and will also increase the heat resistance.
Other characteristics
- End Uses
- Wind Turbine Blades
- Polymer Name
- Epoxy Resins & Compounds
- Processing Methods
Compression Molding, Filament Winding, Hand Lay-up, Pultrusion, Vacuum Bagging
- Caution
• Do not heat over a naked flame; • Before warming, open containers to equalize pressure; • The use safety equipment (gloves, safety glasses, respirator) is mandatory; • Work in a well ventilated area.
- Markets
- Automotive & Transportation
- Consumer Goods
- Industrial
- Storage
The resins and hardeners can be stored for a minimum of 12 months in the original, sealed containers at 15 - 25°C. Crystallization of these materials may occur at temperatures below 15°C and is visible as a clouding or solidification of the liquid within the container. Before processing, the crystallization must be removed. This can be done, without any degrading the product, by slowly warming the material to approximately 50 - 60°C in a water bath, or oven, and stirring or mixing until the liquid becomes clear.
