Test specimens were neat epoxy (without fiber reinforcement).
Typical values, not to be construed as specification.
VISCOSITY VS TEMPERATURE
High-temperature, high-performance epoxy
formulation for synthetic composite mold and
tooling manufacture.
T
g as high as 300 F (149 C) with proper post
cure. Provides excellent temperature stability
and great part cosmetics.
Slow cure speed hardener provides 5 to 6
hours of working time at 72 F (22 C). A typical
laminate will gel in 10 to 12 hours at room
temperature.
This combination is specifically formulated
for resin infusion and VARTM processes. Not
for use in open mold applications.
Elevated temperature cure is required.
Parts can be pulled after 24-48 hours at room
temperature or sooner after a mild initial cure
of 90-110 F (32- 43 C). Post cure 140 F (60 C)
x 2hr + 275 F (135 C) x 12hr, with ramp rates
no greater than 15 C/hour, to achieve
maximum properties.
Quality-control tinting is available at no extra
charge; simply add “QC” after the product
code on your order.
Shelf life is 3 years for resin and 18 months
for hardener when properly stored

Store PRO-SET Epoxy resins and hardeners at room temperature in sealed containers until shortly before use. As
with many high-performance epoxy resins, repeated exposure to low temperatures during storage may cause the resin
to crystallize. If this occurs, warm the resin to 125 F and stir to dissolve crystals. Hardeners may form carbamation
when exposed to CO
2 and moisture in the atmosphere for extended periods of time. Prevent carbamation by protecting
hardeners from exposure until immediately prior to processing.
