Chem-Trend, a global leader in the development, production and marketing of high-performance release systems, purging compounds, and other ancillary moulding and casting products, has announced that the company has developed Zyvax 1070W release agent, a revolutionary step in the advancement of moulding processes for aerospace composites components.
The new product is designed to reduce application and tool clean-up time and improve moulded part quality. These attributes also provide significant environmental advantages, which aerospace moulders can leverage to impact a wide range of sustainability touch-points, such as the energy savings that are achieved through reductions in processing time, product application processes, tool clean-up waste, emissions, and improved work environments.Chem-Trend, a global leader in the development, production and marketing of high-performance release systems, purging compounds, and other ancillary moulding and casting products, has announced that the company has developed Zyvax 1070W release agent, a revolutionary step in the advancement of moulding processes for aerospace composites components.#
Zyvax 1070W is a revolutionary water-based, silicone-free release agent that is formulated for easy and quick application through a spray-on or wipe-on method and let-dry process. There is no need for curing time, which significantly reduces tool prep time. The product provides easy tool clean up, eliminating the need for sandpaper or other highly aggressive cleaning processes. Zyvax 1070W also has a slight tack characteristic, providing an advantage in lay-up procedures. The water-based formulation also radically reduces VOCs and allows for improved air quality in production facilities.
Amanda Pugh, Chem-Trend’s business development director, composites said, “The benefits of this product are significant for both aerospace applications and other types of advanced composite carbon fibre moulding processes. The highly effective nature of the technology developed for this product leads to more efficient composite moulding processes and allows it to deliver results that are optimised to meet the increasing demands of the lightweighting movement.” (GK)
