Overview

ALITA 189 Marine Grade Unsaturated Polyester Resin

CategoryHand Lay-up ResinCodeALITA 189

Applications

ALITA 189 is a high-performance unsaturated polyester resin characterized by low viscosity, excellent water resistance, strong chemical stability, and high elongation at break.

  • Core Advantages: Excellent water and chemical corrosion resistance, high mechanical toughness.
  • Certification: Certified by the China Classification Society (CCS) for marine use.
  • Applications: Suitable for hand lay-up manufacturing of FRP vessels, cooling towers, and other glass fiber reinforced plastic products requiring weather resistance.

Usage Instructions

1. Mixing: ALITA 189 is a non-pre-accelerated resin. Accelerator and curing agent must be added sequentially before use.
2. Recommended Dosages: * Accelerator: Suggested usage 1.0% - 4.0%.
  • Curing Agent: Suggested usage 1.0% - 2.0%.
  • Note: Using curing agent outside this range may reduce the degree of cure.
3. Environment: Gel time and degree of cure are significantly affected by temperature and additive concentration. Adjust based on site conditions.

Storage & Handling

  • Personal Protection: Resin contains hazardous ingredients; wear protective clothing and safety goggles.
  • Temperature Management: Strongly recommended to store below 25℃.
  • Light/Moisture Protection: Keep away from sunlight, steam pipes, or other heat sources. No outdoor storage. Keep sealed to prevent moisture ingress and monomer loss. Follow "FIFO" principle.
