Commonly used in applications that require enhanced thermal properties, this product is ideal for reducing exotherm and shrinkage in large casts while increasing strength. It is also utilized for creating cold cast effects.
Particle Size Distribution:
BSS Mesh Size 350 Microns >63 = 5%
BSS Mesh Size -350 Microns <63 = 95%
Metal powders are typically added at the user's discretion, as each project is unique. To achieve the desired metal effect, the minimum recommended ratio is 1:1, meaning 100g of metal powder to 100g of resin. Depending on casting requirements, this ratio can be increased up to 4 parts metal powder to 1 part resin by weight. These examples serve as a guide; users should always conduct small tests to determine the optimal ratio for their needs. The appropriate ratio may also vary based on the resin used.
Whenever possible, we recommend dusting the mold with metal powder before adding the resin-powder mix to achieve a deep metallic finish. Different powders can be mixed together, but ensure they are thoroughly blended before incorporating them into the resin.
Please note that color variations may occur from batch to batch.
