FILCO 306 is an epoxy resin in non ionic water emulsion.
- Pure epoxy resin
- Epoxy equivalent ~ 330
- Narrow particle size distribution
- Hydrolysis and sedimentation stability from pH 2 to 12 : min 48 h
- Good shelf life
- High mechanical shear stability of the diluted emulsion
- Characteristics of Film
Characteristics of the dried film:
- Clear, tacky
- Less soft then the film of FILCO 309
- Compatible with unsaturated polyester, epoxy, phenolic matrices
- Quickly soluble in styrene

Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 12 months
- Storage and Shelf Life Conditions
FILCO® 306 should be stored in closed container away from sun rays, at temperatures between 5° C and 30°C. In these conditions, maximum suggested storage time is 12 months from production, in the original package. After that date the product must be rechecked. During storge a slight settlement can take place, which can easily be eliminated by careful stirring.
