PEROXAN PK295 S1-V is used for the curing of unsaturated polyester resins at elevated temperatures. PEROXAN PK295 S1-V is preferred for the curing of UP resin based hot press molding formulations in the temperature range from 100° to 130°C. PEROXAN PK295 S1-V is more active than PEROXAN PK295 V and therefore preferred for transfer molding and in pultrusion processes at a temperature of 120°C. Depending on working conditions, the following peroxide dosage level is recommended: PEROXAN PK295 S1-V: 1,0 to 3,0 phr
