SynChem – Resins & Varnishes Voltatex® 4200 1-component-resin

Voltatex® 4200 is a low emission, ready-to-use impregnating 1K dip resin, based on unsaturated polyesterimide resins.

  • single component
  • free of styrene and vinyltoluene
  • low emission, VOC-free
  • resistant to refrigerants
  • not classified as dangerous in the meaning of transport regulations

The cured resin compound is characterized by:

  •  high thermal and mechanical strength, especially under long-term stress
  • good resistance against solvent gases
  • good adhesion

Delivery forms

The dip resin is delivered in 25 kg and 200 kg one-way-cans. Additionally 1000 kg containers (returnable) are available (not for oversea export).

Storage

The resin can be stored for up to 6 months at max. 25 °C if sealed correctly in original containers. We recommend a storage at 20-25 °C. Opened containers have to be resealed
and protected against direct daylight!

Hardening

Voltatex® 4200 is a low emission product; nevertheless to minimize evaporation of reactive components while curing the impregnated objects
should be heated up to the curing temperature in the shortest possible time. The air flow in the curing zone should be kept to the minimum permitted by safety considerations.

Curing times (Dip & Bake process):
at 130 °C: 2h
at 150 °C: 1 h

In the cooling pool, the temperature change should be limited to max. 5 °C.

Protection

Voltatex® 4200 is biologically inactive and safe to health. Implement normal protective measures when processing the liquid dip resin: See the Material safety data sheet (MSDS).

Cleaning

Once cured Voltatex® 4200 is almost insoluble. Therefore, application equipment should be cleaned regularly with cleaner Voltatex® T050 or T060.
All equipment cleaning and maintenance should be carried out in accordance with the equipment manufacturer’s instructions.

Processing

The impregnating resin can be applied by using

  • all kind of conventional dip & bake equipment
  • continuous and vacuum dip processes
  • VPI process
  • Trickling machines

Unlimited tank stability with resin Voltatex® 4200 can be achieved as long as the material is kept below 25 °C and at least 20 % of the tank cont ent is used and replaced with fresh resin per month.
