Reinforcing Large Plugs Shaped in Polystyrene With IMEX11W Elastomere Hybride!

This document discusses using IMEX 11W, a new product from EUROMERE, to reinforce large polystyrene plugs for use with polyester paste. Polystyrene foam is economical for large plugs but requires reinforcement. IMEX 11W is a fast-curing, two-component spray system that reinforces polystyrene without the need for lamination. It provides strength, elongation, and strong adhesion between the polystyrene and polyester paste without air pockets. IMEX 11W is applied using heated, high-pressure spray equipment for an efficient reinforcement process.

Elastomere hybride! the same reason but the interface is often a concern.
Polyester paste directly applied on polystyrene is not an
by [laurent imbert] option, and it is needed to reinforce the polystyrene for
shape stability. Lamination with glass and resin (low or zero
styrene content) has been used for these reasons but this is labor intensive and can
create air pockets that can lead to surface deformation.

IMEX 11W
To answer the market request, EUROMERE developped IMEX 11W. It features
Process information the following properties :
EUROMERE is bringing a new solution with this new product which is a must faster Mix ratio A & B : 1 /1
process (no lamination), fast curing system (immediate) with no risk of air pockets Shore D : >48
so better surface in plug building process with polyester paste on top. Tensile strength : >18 Mpa
Elongation at 23C : >250%
The IMEX 11W is a hot spray system with 2 component high pressure spray system Adhesion to Polystyrene : 100%
type GAMA or Glass Craft or equivalent. These hydraulic spray units have heaters on Polyester paste adhesion to IMEX 11W : good
line, feeder pumps on both circuits, insulated and heated delivery hose for a good
and easy use of this process. Please to ask your euromere contact for further information
