RESOLTECH 1070(S) CLEAR is a premium, crystal-clear epoxy laminating system designed to produce transparent laminates and high-gloss coatings with excellent UV stability and outstanding mechanical properties.
Thanks to its new formulation (January 2019), 1070(S) CLEAR is now the most UV-resistant epoxy resin available on the market. The system has been developed for professional use – ideal for manufacturing surfboards, windsurf boards, kiteboards, and other composite parts that require a flawless, transparent finish.
The 1070(S) CLEAR system features excellent fibre wetting and air-release properties, with no tendency to form amine blush. The resulting laminates are absolutely clear on carbon fibre and can even appear fully transparent when used with special glass fabrics such as Hexcel Silionne E TF970.
The viscosity of the system is optimized for squeegee or brush application, allowing a perfectly smooth, bubble-free surface thanks to its surface tension characteristics. The formulation leaves virtually no free amines on the laminate, enabling the use of any polyester topcoat without inhibition and allowing fast sanding.
RESOLTECH 1070(S) CLEAR cures at room temperature, and post-curing can be applied to further increase the glass transition temperature (TG), as with other epoxy systems.
Mixing ratio
For the 1070(S) CLEAR system, a mixing ratio of 100 : 40 by weight is recommended with hardeners from the 1074 series.
Important information
Storage: Keep containers tightly closed and protected from heat and cold, preferably between 10°C and 30°C in a well-ventilated area. Products are guaranteed when stored in their original packaging (check expiry date on the label).
Mixture color: 1070(S) CLEAR has a transparent purple tint; once mixed with the hardener, the blend remains clear with a subtle violet hue.
