TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

SPECIFICATIONS, CHARACTERISTICS AND APPLICATION

These Textures are used in the Surface layers of FRP Products to combine the essential needs of a Resin rich layer with the Aesthetics, Design,Beauty,Sophistication,Colour of the FRP moulding

CHARACTERISTICS * Uniform fibre distribution * Smooth surface * Soft and Pliable feel * Low binder and stainer content * Fast Resin Impregnation * Good mould obedience To comply with the needs for Hand lay-up the basic Mat/Veil/Tissue is technically monitored in terms of fibre characteristics binder content and stainer/dye curing and fixing, so that it obeys mould contours with quick resin impregnation.

These textures are engineered for Hand lay-up right from the basic fibre characteristics, binder and stainer as well as fibre distribution. If one follows our Technical Note the textures are capable of enhancing the surface finish as well as the under layers of the FRP Moulding to high aesthetic levels of appearance and finish so as to create high gloss. high matt surfaces with improved strength and corrosion resistance.
