Innovative new GRP materials products developed by Scott Bader are being show cased at The JEC Composites Show in Paris at the beginning of April. The five new products being shown cover a variety of markets and application areas:
- Crystic Mouldguard®,an easy to apply removable overcoating, specially designed to protect composites or steel moulds when they are not being used in production. Moulds can be back in production in 1/10 th of the time it would take if they had not been protected. It can be removed in one piece and can be disposed of easily.
- Crystic® LS30PA, a new filled pre-accelerated ISO/NPG marine spray gelcoat for use above and below the waterline. It has demonstrated excellent weathering characteristics during extended exposure tests in Florida, with gloss retention, colour fastness and resistance to yellowing all proving to be highly superior to competitive products.
- Crystic Crestacoat®5000PA, a new barriercoat for the ultimate mirror like gelcoat surface finish when used as a matched system behind a Crystic® gelcoat and with Crystic VE679 skincoat for the ultimate in aesthetics with proven blistering resistance. It is extremely lightweight and can be sprayed or brush applied.
- Crystic® 344A, a filled fire retardant ISO resin system, which has passed IMO, Building BS 476 and BS 6853/ Epiradiateur M1, F0 for over and underground train approvals. It is easy to apply, making it one of Scott Bader’s suitable fiberglass composite products for interior and exterior applications, where a phenolic resin may have been specified in the past.
- Crystic Crestapol® 1210 / 1220 / 1230 - a new range of hybrid high performance resins offering designers alternative products to more traditional acrylic and epoxy thermoset materials which can be manufactured by closed mould, hand-lay and pultrusion, for a variety of applications in building & construction, transportation and marine.
