FAQ

Temperature, Weather, Water, Acid, and Alkali Resistance / Corrosion Performance: How does it perform? Is it suitable for long-term outdoor use? Can it withstand contact with acidic or alkaline media?
Long-term Service Temperature: ≤ 60°C; short-term instantaneous temperature resistance can reach 80°C.
Water Resistance: Features a dense cured structure with low water absorption; offers excellent moisture and mold resistance, making it suitable for use in humid environments.
Acid and Alkali Resistance: Resists mild corrosion from weak acids, weak alkalis, atmospheric elements, and rainwater; however, it is not resistant to prolonged immersion in strong acids, strong alkalis, or strong solvents.
Weather Resistance: Offers standard-grade basic weather resistance; however, prolonged outdoor exposure may result in gradual yellowing. For outdoor applications, it is recommended to incorporate a surface veil combined with a weather-resistant topcoat.
Outdoor Application: Suitable for general outdoor use (e.g., guardrails, cable trays, PV mounting structures); not recommended for use in highly corrosive environments.

Instructions for Use and Storage Conditions
添加药剂
PLM-3016 resin contains no accelerator. A suitable amount of accelerator and curing agent must be added according to operating environment and requirements before use.
During application, control the moisture content of glass fiber, fillers, pigment paste and other raw materials. Ensure good compatibility between pigment paste and unsaturated polyester resin.
存于内部
Store the resin in original unopened packaging in a dry indoor area below 25 ℃ before use.
避免阳光
Elevated temperature and light exposure will significantly shorten shelf life. Keep away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
远离明火
Styrene-containing unsaturated polyester resin is flammable. Store away from open flames. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for details.
