Usage Guidelines
Curing System Selection
When using LC-5940 resin in pultrusion processes, select the curing system based on specific equipment, products, process temperature, and pultrusion speed factors.
Recommended Initiators:
- • BPO: 0.5% - 2.0%
- • TBPB: 0.5% - 1.5%
Material Control
Pay attention to controlling the moisture content of glass fiber, fillers, pigment paste, and other materials. Ensure compatibility between pigment paste and unsaturated polyester resin.
Storage Conditions
Storage Requirements
- Store in original packaging below 25°C in dry indoor conditions
- Avoid direct sunlight and heat sources
- Keep away from open flames - flammable material
Safety Notice
Unsaturated polyester resin containing styrene is flammable. Store away from open flames and refer to the Safety Data Sheet for complete safety information.
