SPECIAL >> Resins, reinforcements, additives, process & equipment etc will always continue to surprrise us with their versatility. The selection of innovation highlights a very dynamic segment, constantly capable of finding solution to meet the expectations of processors and users, as well as regulatory requirements. The friendly cleaner Fire hazard, health problems and/or stricter regulations? Ever thought of banning acetone or other solvents from your workshop? If so, you should take a closer look at the RST-5 live demonstration at Mulder-Hardenberg's stand at the JEC Asia show. The company specializes in GRP raw materials, equipment and moulds for GRP pipes, tanks, rods, etc. It offers a wide range of fibreglass raw materials, such as direct roving, spray-up roving, chopped strand mat, woven roving, surface tissue, combo mat, and more. It also manufactures FRP machines and a wide range of FRP finished products. Quality control is arranged through all stages of manufacture. In addition to regular goods, the company can produce goods meeting its customers’ special requirements. > Stand J25 www.cmaxcomposite.com Ircogel® rheology control additives are easy-to-use, post-addable thickeners that solve particle settling and rheological issues. Solplus® coupling agents improve tensile strength, elongation, and impact resistance in a wide variety of polymer technologies. The Solplus® air release agent is designed for rapid air release and effective wetting in thermoset systems. > Stand E1 www.lubrizolcoatings.com Sandwich panels combining polypropylene honeycomb and stone Nidaplast® Honeycombs, which specialises in extruded polypropylene honeycomb, develops countless applications in the composite field. The sandwich panel technique using its products is commonly employed in association with thermosetting or thermoplastic skins. The combination of Nidaplast8 with heavier conventional materials such as minerals or metals offers cost-effective, innovative alternative solutions. Gelcoat, polyester, epoxy or vinylester resins can be cleaned from laminating tools within seconds, simply by using a “non-aggressive” soap containing no solvents. Even better, the soap is reusable as the waste disperses and sinks to the bottom. And the spinning tool cleans and dries lambswool rollers and brushes within seconds. RST-5 is also nonflammable, non-toxic, economical to use, and easy to store. The product is now also produced in Thailand for the Asian markets. > Stand B13 www.rst-5.com A wide range of additives Lubrizol Advanced Materials offers a wide range of additives to formulate products for the plastics industry, including polymeric hyperdispersants and synergist technology used in a variety of applications such as electronic and advanced materials, surface treatment, thermoplastics, thermosetting plastics and composites, corrosion control and miscellaneous treatments. Solsperse® and Solplus® hyperdispersants solve particle dispersion problems, improve productivity, and enable the formulation of multicomponent systems. Solplus® and Fibreglass raw materials CNBM International Corporation, a subsidiary of China National Building Materials (Group) Corporation (CNBM), is one of the biggest suppliers of fibreglass materials in China.
