HK Research R0229 resilient, acrylic modified isophthalic casting resin was developed specifically for use with 2,4 Pentanedione Peroxides to offer a faster curing and demolding system for densified casting manufacturers. The use of this special catalyst with the R0229 resin will give the molder castings that will approximate the cure of the BPO-cured resin systems without the amber color usually associated with the BPO-cured systems. White and light pastel-colored castings of R0229 using 2,4 Pentanedione Peroxide do have a slightly green color due to the decomposition products of the catalyst. This green cast is not readily evident in darker solid colors or dark granite castings.
