Havelpol 4-UV + pure Polyester resin

Chemical Family
Polyesters

Havelpol 4-UV + pure Polyester resin is light stabilized polyester resins containing styrene and methyl methacrylate. Its use is recommended in the manufacture of maximally clear manually GRP-produced film or casting and potting art objects. Fully cured laminates made from Havelpol 4 and powder associated mat of glass fibers "E" in quality for the production of films can exhibit light transmittance of more than 80%. They exhibit excellent resistance to weathering and stable appearance even after prolonged exposure.

Storage

The resin can be stored for at least 3 month in the carefully sealed containers at temperatures +20°C to +25°C.; Temperature should not be over +30°C. If resin create gel, do not use gel parts. Use only "liquid" resin.; Do not warm up over an open flame! While stirring up use safety equipment (gloves, eyeglasses, respirator).

Additives

Havelpol 4 can be colored by adding small amounts of transparent colors, stable to light. The user should perform tests to ensure an even distribution of color.
