Resins

DACPOL offers products from the resin subgroup, which, due to their diverse physical, chemical properties and electrical characteristics, find wide application in the electrotechnical and electronic industries.

Epoxy Resins

Properties of Epoxy Resins

• thermal resistance,
• resistance to thermal shocks,
• penetration (wetting),
• resistance to chemical agents,
• self-extinguishing,
• thermal conductivity thanks to the addition of appropriate fillers.

Applications and Usage Recommendations

• preheating parts to eliminate moisture and facilitate resin penetration by reducing viscosity,
• pouring resin at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure,
• in some cases, for optimizing resin properties, casting under vacuum.

Packaging and Safety

The resin is available in packaging of 1, 5, and 30 kg or in drums up to 200 kg.

Epoxy resins are not particularly toxic; however, we recommend using them in well-ventilated areas and avoiding any skin contact.

Polyurethane Resins

Properties of Polyurethane Resins

• exothermic peak — while epoxy resins can reach temperatures of 90°C and above, polyurethane resins do not exceed 40–50°C,
• low shrinkage, usually below 1% (epoxy below 5%, polyester below 8%),
• penetration (wetting),
• adhesive properties,
• self-extinguishing,
• thermal conductivity thanks to additives.

Applications and Usage Recommendations

• preheating parts (maximum 60°C) to remove moisture and facilitate penetration by reducing viscosity,
• pouring resin at ambient temperature and atmospheric pressure,
• in some cases, for optimizing resin properties, resin application can also be performed under vacuum.
