Hi there

I’m not having a lot of success degassing P6 two part resin.. is there a particular negative pressure I need to achieve?

I’m wondering if the pump I’m using hasn’t got enough oomph!

Though it works fine for the silicon mould making part of the process?

Your thoughts would be appreciated!

Thanks

Ben

If it is soft then it hasnt cured properly.  Could be due to the settling of the solid matter in the container meaning if you dont shake it properly you might have hardness issues.

The P6 PU resin is also quite moisture sensitive so if there has been a reaction that might explain it, although i would expect there to be a lot of trapped air too (it gets a lot of air in as it reacts with moisture and  in extreme cases can even foam.).
