Description
EP 401
ALCHEMIX GELCOAT EP 401 is a two component, iron filled, brushable, room temperature curing surface coat. GELCOAT EP 401 is designed for use in polyurethane foam moulds, resin injection moulds, foundry patterns and vacuum forming tools.
EP 4060
ALCHEMIX GELCOAT EP 4060 is a two component, aluminium filled, brushable, room temperature curing surface coat. GELCOAT EP 4060 is designed for applications requiring high heat and chemical resistance and negatives where very fine surface finishes are required.
EP 4060C
ALCHEMIX EP 4060C is a two component, unfilled, thixotropic epoxy resin system for use with GELCOAT EP 4060 and ALCHEMIX EP 4350 laminating paste.  ALCHEMIX EP 4060C is specifically formulated for high temperature applications.
EP 407
ALCHEMIX GELCOAT EP 407 is a two component, dolomite filled, brushable, room temperature curing surface coat. The gelcoat EP407 has high heat resistance, good edge stability, it can be repaired and polished to a smooth finish.
EP 435
ALCHEMIX EP435 is enriched with long glass fibre strands, and special fillers in a low-density epoxy resin specially formulated.   After mixing both components a very smooth consistency is achieved with good and easy to spread characteristics. Used as a back filling compound to support rigid Gelcoats and flexible casting compounds.
EP 4350
ALCHEMIX EP 4350 is a glass fibre reinforced epoxy laminating paste for use as a back filling compound in combination with GELCOAT EP 4060 and ALCHEMIX EP 4060C coupling coat. After mixing both components a very smooth consistency is achieved with good and easy to spread characteristics. ALCHEMIX EP 4350 is formulated for use in RIM tools, moulds for pre-pregs and applications requiring high heat resistance.
EP 4351
ALCHEMIX EP4351 is enriched with long glass fibre strands, and special fillers in a low-density epoxy resin specially formulated.   After mixing both components a very smooth consistency is achieved with good and easy to spread characteristics. Used as a back filling compound to support Rigid Gelcoats and flexible casting compounds.
EP 4352
ALCHEMIX EP4352 is enriched with long glass fibre strands, and special fillers in a low-density epoxy resin specially formulated.   After mixing both components a very smooth consistency is achieved with good and easy to spread characteristics. Used as a back filling compound to support Rigid Gelcoats and flexible casting compounds.
EP 522
ALCHEMIX EP 522 is a ultra low viscosity epoxy resin system, specifically designed for vacuum bagging and resin infusion applications. The ultra low viscosity produces excellent wetting of fibre reinforcements such as glass, carbon or aramid fibre.
EP 574
ALCHEMIX EP 574 / H574 is a two part, ambient temperature cure, epoxy system; exhibiting outstanding mechanical and thermal properties. This system has low mixed viscosity and when cured shows excellent high temperature and physical properties. This system has excellent wetting properties for various fibre systems including glass fibre, aramid fibre and carbon fibre etc.
