Scott Bader to attend new JEC ‘Experience Composites’ event

Scott Bader is exhibiting at the ‘Experience Composites’ event organised by the JEC Group, taking place for the first time from 21-23 September 2016 at Messe Augsburg, Germany. On its stand at Hall1/Stand 517 will be the latest technology advanced materials and services available for manufacturing high performance composite parts, which includes:

Crystic Ecogel ‘ultra-low’ styrene content spray gelcoats range - with four grade options for a variety of end applications including: marine, transportation, buildings, general industrial and wind turbine blades. Ecogel S1PA is developed for wind energy and industrial use and Ecogel Marine S2PA grade both combine outstanding performance properties with only 16% styrene content, enabling VOC emissions to be cut by over 55%.

Crestapol range of high performance acrylic resins - for the production of fire retardant and lightweight FRP composite high performance components by open moulding, closed moulding and pultrusion manufacturing techniques. n particular, the carbon fibre compatible Crestapol 1250LV will be highlighted on the stand. This is a grade option which has been successfully used to closed mould very tough, lightweight motorsport body parts reinforced with glass, carbon and aramid fibres, offering design, performance in use and productivity benefits compared with a liquid or prepreg epoxy resin system.

GelTint volumetric gelcoat RAL colour tinting service – launched earlier this year and being gradually rolled out across Europe. Scott Bader’s new GelTint colour mixing service offers a fast response time, with typical lead times of two working days. The service combines rapid gelcoat order fulfilment in small batch colours with guaranteed quality, performance and colour accuracy, based on Scott Bader’s proven Crystic resin technology.

Crestabond primerless methacrylate structural adhesives extended range - including two new adhesive products recently added: Crestabond M1-02, with a sub-three minute curing time, aimed at higher volume assembly of metal, plastic and composite components; Crestabond PP-04, a 1:1 mix ratio grade specifically developed for rapidly bonding low surface energy thermoplastics, including polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE). All grades of Crestabond can structurally bond a wide range of metal, plastic and composite substrates, providing excellent adhesion strength, toughness, fatigue and impact resistance, with virtually no need to do any pre-application surface preparation or apply a primer.

This new ‘Experience Composites’ event, organised by the JEC Group, brings together for the first time expertise from German composites end users, manufacturers, research centres, institutes and universities, creating a varied event with a multifaceted program composed of multiple modules in different locations. Locations and activities include: an exhibition hall; technical conferences, seminars and a thematic symposium; a Study Prize program; training sessions and live demos; b2b meetings; manufacturing company plant tours and visits to local technical institutes located nearby.
