Process: Resin Transfer Molding (RTM)/RTM Light

This is a process by which resin is pumped into a mold through injection ports and then the fiberglass reinforcements and coring materials contained in the mold are saturated with the resin until the resin flows out of the ports located at the top of the mold.

Resins
The Thermoset Resins Division's molding specialists can help you with mold design and reinforcement selection as well as the gel and cure parameters of your resin system. These resin systems are carefully formulated in vinyl esters, isophthalics, orthophthalics and dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) resin systems. The gel and cure formulations are tailored to your manufacturing technique. Choose from high performance vinyl esters and isophthalics or from our cost-effective orthophthalic and DCPD resins.

A specialized promoter package and catalyst system are the key elements in our one-component, low profile, RTM resin system. The SIL44BA-2241 polyester resin produces parts with exceptional surface quality and Barcol hardness levels that easily meet stringent automotive industry standards. Click here to learn more.

Colorants
C Series polyester-based colorants are made with the highest quality pigments and are formulated for use with polyester resin systems. These smooth pigment pastes quickly blend and distribute evenly when stirred into the liquid resin. Opacity is obtained at various colorant levels, depending on the part's thickness and color. All CoREZYN brand standard colorants are formulated without heavy metal pigments.
