Recapoli 3680TPA is a thixotropic and preaccelerated unsaturated polyester resin for hand lay-up lamination of polystyrene foams, usually with glass fabrics or chopped strand mats. This resin does not attack or melt polystyrene foams (35-40 kg/m3 density).
It is catalysed with methyl ethyl ketone peroxide: 1.5% by weight.
Recommended for the manufacture of master models (plugs)for the production of composite moulds. Also frecuently used for coating polystyrene foam parts in decorative applications.
NOTE: Do Not apply a thin layer of resin alone because it would take a lot of time to react and very little styrene content would be enough to attack the polystyrene. It is always recommended to apply this resin with a fibre: glass veil, Chopped Strand MAT, ...
