Anti-Yellowing Stone Resin Overview

PLM-983 stone resin by POLYMER is a professional-grade anti yellowing stone resin specifically formulated for high-end artificial stone manufacturing. Designed as an elite polyester resin for engineered stone, solid surfaces, quartz, and cultured marble, it delivers an unparalleled combination of extreme low shrinkage, exceptional surface hardness, and brilliant high-gloss finishes that effortlessly mimic natural stone textures.

Engineered for flawless fabrication, this bubble-free stone aggregate binder features excellent fluidity and rapid de-aeration, ensuring deep compatibility with various stone powders and aggregates. Once cured, the molded matrix is completely free of pinholes, cracks, or warping. Most importantly, its advanced UV-resistant formulation prevents fading and resists yellowing over prolonged periods, ensuring color stable UPR for vanity tops and kitchen surfaces subjected to daily wear and sunlight exposure.

Empowering Countertop & Engineered Stone Fabrication

Whether producing massive quartz slabs or executing seamless countertop repairs, PLM-983 protects your brand's reputation for quality:

• For Quartz & Engineered Stone Plants: A dependable low shrinkage quartz stone resin that handles high aggregate-to-resin ratios, preventing slab warping and significantly reducing the time required for backend water polishing.

• For Kitchen & Bath OEM Fabricators: Serves as a high gloss artificial marble resin offering extreme resistance to thermal shock, household oils, and abrasion—delivering decades of stain-free beauty.

• For Regional Raw Material Distributors: Sourcing directly from an established non-yellowing marble resin factory guarantees batch-to-batch color consistency, highly competitive pricing, and secure international logistics.

Core Performance Advantages

Enduring Anti-Yellowing

Advanced UV-resistant formulation prevents oxidation and color fading, ensuring pure white or light-colored stone stays pristine over time.

Mirror-Like High Gloss

Acts as an easy polishing stone casting resin, rapidly achieving a brilliant, natural stone-like luster with minimal finishing effort.

Zero-Warp Low Shrinkage

Minimizes curing stress and dimensional changes, completely eliminating slab warping and internal micro-cracks in large countertops.

Pin-Hole Free Defoaming

Excellent fluidity promotes rapid air release during vacuum-assisted aggregate mixing, delivering a perfectly dense, void-free matrix.

FAQ

Instructions for Use and Storage Conditions

PLM-983 stone resin contains no pre-added accelerators; therefore, an appropriate amount of accelerator and curing agent must be added prior to use, based on the specific operating environment and processing requirements.

To ensure that the naturally formed surface of the cured product—specifically the side exposed to air—remains non-tacky, an appropriate amount of paraffin-styrene solution should be added.

To optimize the performance characteristics of the finished product, a post-curing process at 80°C for several hours is recommended.

Prior to use, the resin should be stored indoors in a dry environment at a temperature below 25°C, kept within its original packaging (taking care to avoid opening or damaging the containers).

Elevated temperatures and exposure to light will significantly reduce the product's shelf life; therefore, during storage, the resin must be protected from direct sunlight and kept away from heat sources.

As this styrene-containing unsaturated polyester resin is a flammable liquid, it must be stored away from open flames. Please refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for further safety information.
