DERAKANE 510A-40 epoxy vinyl ester resin is a brominated bisphenol-A based vinyl ester, designed to offer the maximum degree of fire retardance") combined with enhanced chemical resistance and toughness. Since fire retardance is achieved without additives, chemical resistance is maintained and visual inspection of fabricated articles is not impaired. It offers the highest bromine content of any DERAKANE resin.

APPLICATIONS AND USE
DERAKANE 510A-40 resin is the preferred choice where the highest fire retardance is required and is the standard recommendation for external fire retardance layer on FRP equipment. DERAKANE 510A-40 resin is used extensively in FRP ductwork, stacks and stack liner applications, handling mixtures of air and hot gases of potentially flammable liquids. It can be used with filament winding, hand lay-up, spray-up, pultrusion, and resin transfer molding techniques.
