Description

The Winter Catalyst Hardener is specially formulated for use when temperatures fall to around 5°C, ensuring reliable curing of polyester and vinylester resins in cold conditions. Unlike standard catalyst hardeners, this winter-grade MEKP provides a “snap cure”, giving fast and consistent results even in low temperatures.

With a recommended mixing ratio of 1 - 2%, this Winter Catalyst is ideal for fibreglass projects, laminating, mould making, casting and marine repairs carried out during colder months. Its cold-weather formulation helps prevent under-curing, allowing resin applications to maintain strength, durability, and a professional finish.

This catalyst is a clear, colourless liquid with a total active oxygen content of 8.8 - 9.0%, a density of 1.180 g/cm³ at 20°C, and a viscosity of 24 mPa.s at 20°C.

  • Cold weather formula: Designed for use when temperatures drop to around 5°C
  • Snap cure reaction: Ensures reliable curing even in low temperatures
  • Resin compatibility: Suitable for polyester & vinylester resins
  • Mixing ratio: Add 1–2% depending on resin type & conditions
  • Versatile applications: Fibreglass laminating, mould making, boat building, casting & cold-weather resin repairs
  • Professional-grade reliability: Maintains resin strength & finish in winter conditions
  • Sizes available: 500g, 1kg Bottle, 5kg Bottle, 25kg Keg

Technical Specifications:

  • Appearance: Clear, colourless liquid
  • Total Active Oxygen: 8.8–9.0%
  • Density (20°C): 1.180 g/cm³
  • Viscosity (20°C): 24 mPa.s

A single MEKP initiator formulation cannot provide optimum results in all resin systems. Evaluation of each MEKP in each resin intended for use is absolutely essential before full-scale manufacturing is attempted.

I've been using FSL for a while now and the products have always been excellent and very well priced. What is particularly impressive is the speed of delivery and comms - always excellent. Usually items delivered within 2 days, often the next day. Very happy and no reason to look elsewhere. Thanks 5 Stars
