DERAKANE™ MOMENTUM 470-300 Epoxy Vinyl Ester Resin

DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 resin is a novolac-based vinyl ester designed to provide exceptional
mechanical properties at higher temperatures. This resin offers a high resistance to solvents and
chemicals, good retention of strength and toughness at elevated temperatures, and excellent resistance
to acidic oxidizing environments. DERAKANE MOMENTUM resins are a new generation of resins that
can be used to improve fabrication efficiency and product quality. Their lighter color makes defects easier
to see and correct while the resin is still workable. The longer stability provies additional flexibility to
fabricators in storage and handling.

DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 resin offers an economical alternative to exotic alloys by allowing the
use of lower-cost FRP over traditional materials. This resin resists solvents, chemicals, and acidic
oxidizing environments to provide long lasting, reliable equipment for corrosive materials (please contact
us before using thixotropic agents and fillers. Addition of thixotropic agents and fillers can compromise
corrosion resistance).

DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 resin retains strength and toughness at elevated temperatures which
enables users to operate the equipment in a variety of applications. It contains only 33 weight percent
styrene, resulting in reduced styrene emissions and allows fabricators to meet California's South Coast Air
Quality Management District Rule 1162.

Note: Contact us before using thixotropic agents and fillers. Addition of thixotropic agents and fillers can
compromise corrosion resistance.

APPLICATIONS AND DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 is suitable for applications involving high temperature scrubbing,
USE ducting, piping and storage, industrial waste treatment facilities, as well as solvent extraction processes
used in mining. It is also used for hydrochloric acid transport, tank, truck and railcar linings, and gasohol
storage.

DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 resin is recommended for most commercial FRP fabrication
processes including hand lay-up, spray-up, pultrusion and resin transfer molding. The higher viscosity of
DERAKANE MOMENTUM 470-300 HV resin facilitates filament winding applications.

DERAKANE 470HT-400 resin can be used for even higher temperature applications.

TYPICAL CURING The following tables provide typical(1) geltimes using TRIGONOX(2) 239 catalyst(3) or equivalent
CHARACTERISTICS non-foaming MEKP alternative peroxide system, cobalt naphthenate or octoate-6%(4) (Cobalt6%) and
2,4-pentanedione (2,4-P). For pre-acceleration for prolonged storage (e.g. formulation of lining or flooring
systems) either avoid DMA or DEA, or use DEAA (DiEthyl-AcetoAcetamide). For further information,
please contact ASHLAND. This and other information are available at www.derakane.com.

Warning: Addition levels of less than 0.05% cobalt 6% may cause undercure under certain conditions.
Please contact Ashland Technical Service for further details or if such low levels are envisaged.

STORAGE Drums - It is highly recommended that all material is stored at stable temperatures below 25°C (77°F).
Avoid exposure to heat sources such as direct sunlight or steam pipes. To avoid contamination of product
with water, do not store outdoors. Keep sealed to prevent moisture pick-up and monomer loss. Mild
mixing is recommended after prolonged storage. Rotate stock.

Bulk - See Ashland's Bulk Storage and Handling Manual for Polyesters and Vinyl Esters. A copy of this
may be obtained from Ashland at +1.614.790.3333 or 800.523.6963.

All things being equal, higher storage temperature will reduce product stability and lower storage
temperature will extend product stability.
