Fire Retardant Resin

Product Details:

Fire Retardant Resin is a specially formulated thermosetting resin (often a type of unsaturated polyester, vinyl ester, or epoxy) that has been modified to reduce flammability, limit smoke production, and prevent flame spread in the event of a fire. These resins are critical in applications where fire safety is regulated or essential.

1. Flame Resistance:

   • Slows or prevents ignition and flame propagation.

   • Often tested to meet standards like UL 94, ASTM E84, BS 476, or EN 13501.

2. Smoke Suppression:

   • Engineered to reduce smoke density and toxic gas emissions when burned.

3. Self-Extinguishing Properties:

   • In many cases, the resin stops burning once the flame source is removed.

Product Details:

ISO Fire Retardant Resin refers to an isophthalic acid-based unsaturated polyester resin that is formulated with fire-retardant additives to meet fire safety standards while offering enhanced mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance compared to general-purpose (orthophthalic) resins.

1. Isophthalic Backbone:

   • Offers superior strength, chemical resistance, and durability compared to orthophthalic resins.

   • Suitable for more demanding structural and environmental applications.

2. Built-in Fire Retardant Properties:

   • Typically includes halogenated compounds or non-halogen fillers like aluminum trihydrate (ATH) or phosphorus-based agents.

   • Designed to meet fire ratings such as UL 94 V-0, ASTM E84 Class A, or BS 476.

3. Thermosetting and Catalyst-Cured:

   • Requires a catalyst such as MEKP for curing.

   • Cures to form a rigid, crosslinked polymer resistant to heat and fire spread.

4. Low Smoke & Toxic Gas Emission (depending on formulation):

   • Essential for enclosed environments like tunnels, buildings, or public transport interiors.

Product Details:

Fire Retardant Resin is a specially formulated thermosetting resin (typically unsaturated polyester, vinyl ester, or epoxy) that contains fire-retardant additives to inhibit the spread of flames and reduce smoke and toxic gas emissions when exposed to fire. It is widely used in construction, transportation, marine, and electrical applications where fire safety is critical.

Product Details:

Roof Light Resin is a type of unsaturated polyester resin or vinyl ester resin specifically formulated for roof light panels, which are translucent or transparent panels used in roofing systems to allow natural light to penetrate into buildings. These resins are designed to be weather-resistant, UV stable, and durable under harsh environmental conditions, making them ideal for applications such as skylights, roof lights, greenhouses, and industrial buildings.

1. Transparency and Light Transmission:

   • Designed to maintain high optical clarity to allow maximum light penetration.

   • Ensures natural daylighting while offering protection against UV radiation.

2. UV Stability:

   • UV-resistant formulations to prevent yellowing, brittleness, or degradation over time from sun exposure.

   • Protects against UV degradation, ensuring longevity and sustained clarity of the roof light panels.

3. Weather and Environmental Resistance:

   • Resists moisture, heat, cold, and chemical exposure, ensuring the resin maintains its integrity under different weather conditions.

   • Resilient to rain, snow, and wind while remaining tough and durable.

4. Impact Resistance:

   • Provides a tough and durable surface that can withstand hail, impacts, and other external forces, reducing the risk of cracks or breakage.

5. Thixotropic Properties:

   • The resin has a thick consistency (thixotropic) that helps it stay in place during application, preventing sagging, especially when applied vertically in roofing systems.

6. Excellent Bonding:

   • Bonds well with fiberglass mats and other reinforcing materials, providing strength and stability to the final product.
