FILCO® Neoxil 940

FILCO® Neoxil 940 is a bisphenolic, unsaturated polyester resin in powder form

• Very high molecular weight
• Very quickly soluble in styrene
• High binding power for glass fibers in "hot melt" operating conditions
• High degree of compatibility with unsaturated polyester matrices.

FILCO® Neoxil 940 main application

• Styrene soluble binder for chopped strand mat and continous filament mat
• Binder for preforms

2.5 - 5% of FILCO® Neoxil 940 on the glass weight is normally required according to the weight for square meter and stiffness wanted for glass mat. Water as fine mist is sprayed to help FILCO® Neoxil 940 to stick to glass fibers. After application of FILCO® Neoxil 940 the glass mat is stoved at 180 - 210 °C for 1 - 2 minutes. The operation lets water evaporate and melts FILCO® Neoxil 940 , which accumulates at the contact points of the glass strands, binding them.

FILCO® Neoxil 940 is supplied in fiber drums with polyethylene bag, net weight 125 kg

FILCO® Neoxil 940 should be stored in closed containers away from direct sun rays and source of heat, at temperature below 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.
