> published on 13 December 2016

To answer an increasing demand from customers for Low-Styrene Content (LSC) unsaturated polyester resins and anticipate coming European legislation evolutions on emissions exposure, Polynt Composites has succeeded in its Research & Development innovation efforts to develop and manufacture a new low-styrene resin formulation to meet the high technical requirements of the marine market.

This new resin has been tested, approved and is now produced at industrial scale: it is ready-to-use in already existing industrial processes, so there is no need to adapt or change the standard industrial equipment. The LSC resin has a reduced styrene percentage and therefore limits styrene emissions, odors and exposure in the work atmosphere. This low-styrene emission resin is meeting the applicable European exposure legislation and provides the same technical performance and mechanical properties when compared to standard resins.
