Jesmonite AC100 Water Based Casting Resin 3.5kg Kit

Features

• Jesmonite AC100 - A water-based, two-component, acrylic polymer resin system. Suitable for a wide range of casting and laminating applications where the end-user wants to reduce the many risks associated with conventional solvent-based materials.
• Versatility - Extremely versatile material that encourages to create both internally and externally. Allowing artisans to create durable, lightweight and detailed objects for a wide range of applications. The sky is your limit!
• Finished Colour - The finished colour is white with a peachy/pink tone. To get a pure white cast, the Jesmonite White Pigment at a maximum of 2% needs to be added.
• Ratio to Mix - 2.5 Powder : 1 Liquid. The demoulding time is 2 hours, with a cast being fully set after 24 hours.
• No Caused Damage - AC100 can be cast without damage to rubber moulding compounds and without limitation to scale. This material is fire-resistant, achieved a Class ‘0’ firing rating.

Product Description

1kg Jesmonite AC100 Liquid 2.5kg Jesmonite AC100 Powder Mix Ratio 2.5 parts AC100 Powders to 1 Part AC100 Liquids, by weight. (2.5 : 1) Jesmonite is a versatile range of water-based, solvent free composite materials ideally suited to the creation of decorative mouldings and glass reinforced laminates. These materials have a range of unique properties, which contribute to strength, durability, non-toxicity, and the ability to comply with many of the necessary test requirements of the construction industry, specifically those in regard to fire performance and impact resistance. Jesmonite AC100 is an Acrylic Composite material supplied in two parts, a powder and a liquid. It is suitable for both decorative castings and glass reinforced laminates, and can be pigmented using the Jesmonite range of water-based pigments. It is also possible to add a range of decorative and functional fillers in order to achieve a wider range of effects and to meet a broader spectrum of specifications. Jesmonite AC100 can be used both internally and externally, although external use requires the application of a suitable sealer or external paint system for long-term exposure. It is fire-resistant, having achieved a Class '0' fire rating under UK Building Regulations BS476 (Parts 6&7). Due to its solvent free formulation, AC100 can be cast without damage to rubber moulding compounds, and without limitation to scale. It is also dimensionally stable due to low exothermic reaction, and produces a small amount of expansion on set (1mm/ linear metre). AC100 is supplied in separate containers of liquid and powder, and mix ratios are variable to allow for both decorative and functional fillers. Normal casting and laminating requires a mix ratio of 2.5 parts AC100 Powders to 1 Part AC100 Liquids, by weight.
