Polymer Pyramid - Base Resins Polymer Material Handling Depending on your formulation’s base resin there may be different requirements for storage, preparation, and processing to minimize manufacturing challenges.

Together, the collaborative team evaluated various Gordon Composites™ spring materials and configurations, trialing different lengths, thicknesses and fiberglass-to-resin ratios to achieve the required properties.

Graft resin cannot be dried, has a 6 month shelf life when stored unopened in a cool dry location and must be consumed after opening.
