Demolding time (hr) at 25°C on 3mm Thickness 8

PROCESSING CONDITIONS
After mixing according to the indicated ratio, impregnate the reinforcements (glass, aramid,
carbon).
To obtain the desired temperature resistance and the optimal mechanical properties it is
necessary to make a post Curing of LR620 system. Post cure: 12 to 36 h RT + 2 h at 80°C + 4 h at
100°C
Working at 20°C minimum ensures a very good start of curing of LR620/615 system.
