RESOLTECH 1000T

Hardeners 1003, 1006, 1008, 1015

Thixotropic Multipurpose Epoxy System

  • Room temperature curing
  • Low viscosity and good wetting properties
  • TG from 67ºC to 108ºC
  • Choice of extra slow, standard, fast, and humid environments hardeners

RESOLTECH 1000T is a multipurpose thixotropic epoxy resin system formulated for a wide range of applications. It enables to manufacture structural composites parts with all existing reinforcement fabrics.

It is intended for filament winding, wet lay-up, infusion, RTM and press processes and uses the most up to-date epoxy chemistry available. It is also possible to use the 1000T resin system for coatings.

RESOLTECH 1000T system formulation ensures the highest cross-linking available at room temperature curing conditions.
The choice of hardeners: 1003 (extra slow), 1006 (standard), 1008 (fast) offers a good versatility to this system and the 1015 hardener enables applications in wet & cold environments.

1000T is the thixotropic version of 1000 epoxy system, it is suitable for vertical applications.

This 2015 improved health and safety formulation following the latest EU regulation (CE) n°453/2010 grants a low toxicity for users, reducing risks for workers, which is particularly important for those using the product in open-mould, hand lay-up situations, where skin contact and exposure to vapours can be difficult to avoid completely.
