INDAPRO® 58 Series
Used as a cross-linking curing agent, which reacts with the resin and is coupled directly into the cured system as a structural part of the polymer.
Applications
Natural Lubricant
Our Castorwax solution is a natural lubricant alternative for petroleum-based waxes in rubber, tubing, & plastics applications. Hydrogenated Castor Oil has a discrete melt point, which provides consistency relative to other waxes.
Features
- Liquid curing agents; easier to handle and mix with resin
- Significantly extends pot life of the resin during processing
- Excellent transparency and electrical resistance of resins
- Can react at ambient temperatures and easily incorporated into resins
- Improves water resistance and flexibility of heat-cured resins
