HETRON FR992 resin is a low viscosity, unpromoted, flame retardant") patented epoxy vinyl ester with F-Cat technology. This patented technology results in a resin that exhibits no foaming, excellent exotherm control, and industry-leading storage stability. Laminates made with HETRON FR992 resin have achieved a flame spread of <25 (ASTM E-84) when 3% antimony trioxide is added and a flame spread of <75 without antimony trioxide. HETRON FR992 resin gives final products with:
- Excellent flame retardancy
- High strength characteristics
- Excellent impact strength and toughness
- Fast wet-out and low drainage
- Excellent corrosion resistance to acidic and alkaline environments
APPLICATIONS AND USE
HETRON FR992 resin can be used for corrosion resistant, reinforced thermosetting plastic equipment including filament wound, hand lay-up and spray-up tanks, pipes, ducts, stacks, scrubbers, linings or other equipment handling corrosive gases, vapors or liquids where a high degree of flame retardancy is required.
