HETRON FR998/35 resin is a low viscosity, unpromoted, flame retardant") patented epoxy vinyl ester with F-Cat technology. This patented technology results in a resin that exhibits no foaming, excellent exotherm control, and industry leading storage stability. Laminates made with HETRON FR998/35 resin have achieved a flame spread of <25 (ASTM E-84) without antimony trioxide. HETRON FR998/35 resin also contains <35% styrene.

Equipment fabricated with HETRON FR998/35 resin exhibit:

• Excellent flame retardancy

• Excellent thermal shock resistance

• Excellent corrosion resistance to acids and oxidizers

• Excellent thermal properties

• Fast wet-out, low drainage

APPLICATIONS AND USE
HETRON FR998/35 resin can be used for corrosion resistant, reinforced thermosetting plastic equipment including filament wound, hand lay-up and spray-up tanks, pipes, ducts, stacks, scrubbers, linings or other equipment handling corrosive gases, vapors or liquids where a high degree of flame retardancy is required. The product is well suited for the caustic/chlorine and power industry applciations.
