STICKFAST 321 ROOFLIGHT RESIN
kerala
 
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
 
Stickfast 321 is a general purpose Low viscosity. Fast curing, UV stabilized polyester resin designed for Rooflight sheet application. It has excellent light transmissivity and colour retention.

TYPICAL PROPERTIES OF STICKFAST 321


Appearance   A clear light yellow liquid
.
Speicifiy gravity @ 25 °C   1.11 0.02
Viscosity @ 25 °C (CPS) :
(Brookfield Viscometer)
  200 - 300
Volatile Content (Wt %)   40 2
Acid Value (mgs KOH/gm)   25 5
Water content (% max)   0.25
Shelf Life   About 6 months at 20 °C When stored in original sealed containers.
     
CURING CHARACTERISTICS
 
Stickfast 321 is cured by free radical initiating catalysis with suitable accelerators to promote rapid and complete curing.

     
Stickfast 321
  100 gms.
Accelerator (Co %)   1.5 ml.
Catalyst MEKP (50% Conc.)
  1.5 ml.
Gel time (Minutes).   20 – 30
     
CAUTION: Accelerator should never be mixed with catalyst as this would cause explosion. The accelerator should be blended into the resin first. The catalyst should be added just before use.

(The specimens for testing are cured for 24 hours at Room temperature followed by Post Curing for 4 hours at 80 °C)

POST CURING REQUIREMENTS

Satisfactory laminates for many applications can be made by curing the laminate at ambient temperatures. However for achieving optimum properties the laminate should be post cured for a period of 4 hours at 80
°C. The Post curing is most effective when carried out immediately after the 24 hours ambient temperature cure.
