Engineered resins for pultrusion
(Meth)acrylate engineered solutions for pultrusion processing of glass-reinforced polymer composite
Benefits of Sartomer’s solutions
Sartomer has developed unique solutions for UV and thermal radical polymerization, enabling our customers to reach their desired material properties.
Pultrusion process
Pultrusion is considered as a fast, continuous manufacturing process for unidirectional, fiber-reinforced high-performance composite. Fibers are pulled from a creel through a resin bath and then cured and shaped through a die.
Technology benefits : cost savings, improved productivity and light weight materials
Application fields
- Construction
- Energy
- Telecommunications
- Sports
- Transportation/Marine
- Electronics
