Hand Lay-Up Epoxy

Hand lay-up is the most common and least expensive open-molding process of building composites.  It requires the least amount of equipment. Layers of fiber reinforcements such as carbon fiber cloth  are placed by hand on a mold and resin is applied with a brush or roller.

CA Composites provides epoxy resin best suited for hand-lay up process.

  • Suitable for wind turbine blades, marine and automobile body manufacture.
  • Can be used with carbon fiber, glass fiber, basalt and aramid fibers.
Based on tg and curing temperature, we have two categories of hand lay-up epoxy resin.
Category:
