- The temperature of material and processing should be between 18 and 25° C.
- The mixing of resin and hardener should be made intensively and if possible without any bubbles at room temperature.
Additonal details for post curing:
Typical curing- 24 h at RT
- 2 - 4 h at 40°C
- 4 h at 60°C
- 5 h at 80°C
We recommend a post curing with a temperature rise of about 10°C/hour. Difficult geometries should be supported during the curing cycle. Afterwards the part should be cooled down at about 20°C/hour.

Storage & Handling
- Storing
- At appropriate storage 18-25°C.
- Occuring crystallization due to disadvantageous storage conditions can be made return by warming up the material at approx. 60° C for some hours.
- Opened containers should be closed immediately after use and be protected against moisture. This material should be used up as soon as possible.
