Technical Information

NORPOL FI-184

DESCRIPTION

NORPOL FI-184 is a vinyl ester based bonding paste for bonding polyester laminates giving grooves with great strength and toughness. Thicknesses up to 15 mm can be applied in one operation without causing cracks when curing.

NORPOL FI-184 is preaccelerated and is changing colour from light grey to yellowish/brown shortly after the admixing of peroxide.

NORPOL FI-184 is suitable for machine application. We recommend to run tests with the machine before starting the bonding job to ensure proper admixing of the peroxide.

The bonding paste should be stored at 18-25 ºC .If the product have a temperature <18 ºC (which is no problem as to product quality) it should be heated to 18-25 ºC before use. See storage and handling document of NORPOL products.
