RESOLTECH 1050

Technical datasheet revision– 16/02/2009

Hardeners 1053 to 1059

Structural Lamination Epoxy System
Adjustable pot life from 10 h to 15 min.
Room temperature cure & mould release.
Final TG above 75°C.

The 1050 epoxy laminating system is formulated to manufacture high performance lightweight
structures with glass, carbon, aramid and basalt reinforcements with or without post-curing.
This new generation system, optimized with a low exothermy, low viscosity and excellent air release
properties, is suitable for the manufacture of large structures and composite parts by wet lay-up,
infusion, injection moulding or filament winding while guaranteeing low toxicity working conditions to the
users.
All hardeners mix with a 100:35 ratio and can be pre-blended together to precisely adjust the desired pot
life.
The 1050 resin + 1053 system is particularly recommended for infusion thanks to it’s low mixed viscosity
(205 mPas) and stable viscosity at all working conditions & temperatures.
The 1050 resin is available in a thixotropic version (1050T) for wet lay-up application in vertical or
overhanging surfaces prone to resin dripping.
It is possible to release the parts from the mould without post-curing. 90% of the thermo-mechanical
properties of the laminate will be obtained after 7 days at ambient temperature.
Laminates produced with the 1050 system will offer very good mechanical properties combined with
excellent fatigue resistance.
The greatest quality of the RESOLTECH 1050 system is it high inter-laminar properties thanks to its
exceptional wetting properties even on aramid reinforcements.
Its 5% of elongation to break and 6% of flexion to break mechanical characteristics makes the 1050
system as a prime choice epoxy system for large structural laminates submitted to dynamic working
efforts.
