Water clear crystal cast polyurethane systems
27/02/2017Crystal Cast 100 / 200 / 300 / 400
Alchemie have developed a two component polyurethane system which is water clear when cured. The range consists of 4 different products, CC100-CC400 which vary, primarily by curing time. CC100 and CC200 are ideal for rapid prototyping, embedding or any type of clear casting, with or without vacuum. CC300 and CC400 are ideal for casting in bulk such as sculptures, embedding decorative objects and other similar applications. The material is optically clear and UV stable. It is also polishable to a high gloss, of low viscosity and easily pigmented. Application uses are:- Clear Casting
- Embedding
- Model Making
- Resin Casting
