The Vipel F085 series is an epoxy novolac vinyl ester resin dissolved in styrene. The Vipel F085 series is ideally suited for applications where outstanding mechanical properties and resistance to chemicals, oxidation and heat are required.
Corrosion resistance The epoxy novolac backbone chemistry provides resistance to acids and bases and has superior resistance to many organic solvents. Vipel F085 series is generally resistant to liquids and vapors at higher temperatures than standard bisphenol-A epoxy vinyl ester resins.
The Vipel F085 series is well suited for use in the field of chlorine-alkali electrolysis. Refer to AOC's "Corrosion Resistant Resin Guide" for corrosion resistance information or for questions regarding suitability of a resin to any particular chemical environment contact AOC.
Mechanical Properties The Vipel F085 series is suitable for moldings that are subjected to particularly high static and dynamic loads. It is resistant to internal stress cracking under high loading.
Versatile Suitable for various fabricating methods such as hand lay-up, filament winding, etc.
