DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 resin is a novolac-based vinyl ester designed to provide exceptional mechanical properties at higher temperatures. This resin offers a high resistance to solvents andchemicals, good retention of strength and toughness at elevated temperatures, and excellent resistance to acidic oxidizing environments.

DERAKANE MOMENTUM resins are a new generation of resins that can be used to improve fabrication efficiency and product quality. Their lighter color makes defects easier to see and correct while the resin is still workable. The longer stability provies additional flexibility to fabricators in storage and handling.

DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 resin offers an economical alternative to exotic alloys by allowing the use of lower-cost FRP over traditional materials. This resin resists solvents, chemicals, and acidicoxidizing environments to provide long lasting, reliable equipment for corrosive materials (please contact us before using thixotropic agents and fillers. Addition of thixotropic agents and fillers can compromise corrosion resistance).

DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 resin retains strength and toughness at elevated temperatures which enables users to operate the equipment in a variety of applications. It contains only 33 weight percent styrene, resulting in reduced styrene emissions and allows fabricators to meet California's South Coast Air Quality Management District Rule 1162.

Note: Contact us before using thixotropic agents and fillers. Addition of thixotropic agents and fillers can compromise corrosion resistance.

Application

DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 resin is suitable for applications involving high temperature chlorination or caustic scrubbing and storage, industrial waste treatment facilities and solvent extraction processes used in mining. It is also used for hydrochloric acid transport, tank, truck and railcar linings, and gasohol storage.

DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 is recommended for most commercial FRP fabrication processes including hand lay-up, spray-up, pultrusion and resin transfer molding. The higher viscosity of MOMENTUM DERAKANE 470-300 resin facilitates filament winding and contact molding applications.

DERAKANE 470HT-400 resin can be used for even higher temperature applications.
