Epoxy Vinyl Ester Resin
Product Description
SWANCOR 901-200 is a low viscosity Bisphenol A type epoxy vinyl ester resin. It provides excellent corrosion resistance to a broad range of organic and inorganic acids, alkalis, oxidizing chemicals and salt solution etc. It also provides very good mechanical strength such as tensile and flexural while incorporated with reinforcement such glass fiber, carbon fiber or kevlar fiber etc. The ease of use of SWANCOR 901-200 makes it suitable for various fabrication process, such as pultrusion, RTM, filament winding and vacuum infusion etc. It has good heat resistance distortion temperature as good as SWANCOR 901.
Applications:
- Chemical storage tanks, pipes.
- Corrosion resistant flooring while incorporated with aggregates.

NOTICE IN USE
1. The gel time of SWANCOR 901-200 is affected primarily by catalyst concentration and temperature. The variations of cure characteristics may be caused by variations of catalyst, humidity, pigment, fillers and other additives. It is recommended that the fabricators check the cure characteristics with a small quantity resin before proceeding for bulk production.
2. SWANCOR 901-200 contains organic solvent (styrene). Keep away from heat, sparks and flames.
3. SWANCOR 901-200 is a potentially reactive chemical. Please store it in dark and keep away from direct sunshine.
4. Container, not completely emptied must be closed immediately after use.
5. For material with long storage time, it is recommended to either pump air into the resin or open the cap of containers to prevent gelation.
6. SWANCOR 901-200 is only suitable for hand lay-up, pultrusion and filament winding fabrication process. Others like promoted vinyl resin SWANCOR 901-200-P or pre-thixotroped vinyl resin 901-200-T. can also be provide by customers requested.
MATERIAL SAFETY AND HANDLING INFORMATION
SKIN CONTACT:
Thoroughly wash exposed area with soap and water immediately. Remove contaminated clothing. Launder contaminated clothing before re-use.
EYE CONTACT:
Flush with large amount of water immediately and continuously for 20 minutes, lifting upper and lower lids occasionally. Get medical attention.
INGESTION:
Do not induce vomiting. Keep person warm, quiet and get medical attention. Aspiration of material into the lungs can cause chemical pneumonic which can be fatal.
INHALATION:
If affected, remove individual to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, administer oxygen. If breathing has stopped, give artificial respiration. Keep person warm, quiet, and get medical attention.
PERSONAL PROTECTION:
Do not breathe vapors. High concentration of vapor can be hazardous. Keep out of sewers. Eliminate all sources of ignition in vicinity of spill or released vapor to avoid fire or explosion. For large spills, warn public of downwind explosion hazard. Check area with explosion meter before re-entering area. Ground and bond all containers and handling equipment.
RESIN STORAGE
Keep away from ignition sources; flames, pilot lights, electrical sparks, and sparking tools. NO SMOKING. Do not store in direct sunlight. Store separate from oxidizing materials, peroxides, and metal salts. Keep container closed when not in use. To ensure maximum stability and maintain optimum resin properties, resins should be stored in closed containers at temperatures below 25oC (77oF). Copper or copper containing alloys should be avoided as containers.
SPILLS
Eliminate all ignition sources (flares, flames, including pilot lights electrical sparks). Persons not wearing protective equipment should be exclude from area of spill until clean-up has been completed. Stop spill at source, dike area of spill to prevent spreading, pump liquid to salvage tank. Remaining liquid may be taken up on sand, clay, earth, floor absorbent or other absorbent material and shoveled into containers.
WASTE DISPOSAL
Destroy by liquid incineration in accordance with applicable regulation. Contaminated absorbent should be disposed in accordance to government regulations.
