Crystic® CiPP Resin D5101

1 of 176 products in this brand

Crystic® CiPP Resin D5101 is an unaccelerated, thixotropic, isophthalic polyester resin ideally suited for use in the production of liners for pipe relining. Thanks to Cured-In-Place-Pipe (CiPP) technology, this resin can be used to create a new pipe lining within an existing pipe structure, making it efficient and easy to use. Once fully cured, the laminates have good chemical resistance and mechanical properties, as well as long-term property retention. This resin is therefore ideal for heavy duty, high frequency, and industrial applications. This resin should be allowed to reach workshop temperature before use, at which point its gel time will be between 3 and 6 minutes. It requires the addition of a catalyst for the curing process to begin. However, further additives such as pigments and fillers may affect its natural properties, and their effects should be evaluated before use.

Features & Benefits

Materials Features: Chemical Resistant,
Good Mechanical Properties,
Thixotropic
Product Characteristics: Crystic D5101 should be allowed to attain workshop temperature (18°C - 20°C) before use. It requires the addition of a catalyst such as Perjadox 16 to start the curing reaction.. The catalyst should be thoroughly incorporated into the resin, using a low shear mechanical stirrer where possible..
Features and Benefits: Fully cured laminates offer good chemical resistance and mechanical properties, together with good long term property retention.
