Marbalease
 
Marbalease® Slurry Wax
Marbalease® Slurry Wax is a slow drying wax mold release polishing compound designed primarily as a Flange / Edge / Hat wax but can also be used as a general purpose mold release agent for thermoset composites where a smooth post-production finish is not required (such as on the underside of cultured marble vanities, with polymer concrete, or on traditional concrete forms).  Marbalease® Slurry Wax is often used to protect equipment from overspray. Apply with a brush or cloth - mold can be prepped in advance as Marbalease® Slurry Wax will remain "wet" up to twelve hours. Marbalease® Slurry Wax is water-white mold release wax available in 5-gal. (19.9L) plastic pails and 30-gal. (113.6L) plastic pony drums.
 
Marbalease® Polymer Concrete Release
Marbalease® Polymer Concrete Release is a fast drying liquid wax polishing compound recommended as a low cost mold release wax for use with polymer concrete (polycrete). Marbalease® Polymer Concrete Release is used with polyester or vinylester resins on fiberglass or metal molds but can also be used as a general purpose mold release agent for reinforced thermoset plastics where a smooth post-production finish is not required.

Marbalease® Polymer Concrete Release is a new, simple, effective, and economical, specially developed liquid wax release agent for the polymer concrete (polycrete or GRC) industry. Apply Marbalease® Polymer Concrete Release with a brush or cloth, no need to buff, dries quickly enabling fast cycling of molds. Suitable for metal or polyester molds and for use with polyester and vinylester resins or with traditional concrete. Supplied in 5-gal. (19.9L) plastic pails convenient pour spout. Flash point for Marbalease® Polymer Concrete Release is >142 °F (>61 °C) / (TCC).

Marbalease® IMR-1 Internal Mold Release - Polyester, Vinylester & Phenolic Pultrusion Resins
 
 
 
 
 
 
Marbalease® IMR Internal Mold Releases are blends of polymers that form a mold release when added to a resin system in the pultrusion process. Added to thermoplastics, thermosets and rubbers at 0.1-2.0 % levels by neat resin weight, these products can improve productivity with better demolding, less tool down time and better looking parts. Marbalease® IMR Mold Releases reduce resin viscosity, facilitate resin flow, improve fiber impregnation and the wetting of tool surfaces while providing antistatic properties. Pultruded parts exit ready for painting, bonding or other post-finishing without degreasing. Marbalease® IMR Internal Mold Releases contain no wax, silicone or metallic stearates and do not affect part color.


Marbalease® IMR-1 Internal Mold Release is a liquid process aid for use in the pultrusion thermoset composite production method with Polyester, Vinylester and diallyl phthalate phenolic (DAP) pultrusion resins. Typically added at rates of 0.5 – 2.0% to the pultrusion resin formulation, MARBALEASE® IMR-1 Internal Mold Release aids the release of pultruded composite from the die wall as the composite moves through the die. With a superior neutralization package it offers corrosion resistance to metal dies and improved processability. Contains no wax, silicone or metallic stearates. Benefits can include improved part mechanical and cosmetic properties by improving wetting of the reinforcement, better dispersion of fillers and other additives, reduced matrix viscosity, enhanced antistatic properties, and lower pulling force requirements during processing of pultruded composites. MARBALEASE® IMR-1 Internal Mold Release is a non-exuding polymeric blend of phosphate esters, fatty amines, and fatty acids, allowing parts to emerge ready for post-finishing without solvent wash or abrasion. MARBALEASE® IMR-1 Internal Mold Release is specified for or use with polyester and vinylester resins using BPO, Peroxydicarbonates and esters, TBPB, Dicumyl Peroxides, and Peroxyketal Peroxides; and with diallyl phthalate phenolic (DAP) resin.

Effective within a range of 0.75 to 2.0 parts per 100 parts neat resin by weight. Heavily loaded matrices may require a higher percentage of Marbalease® IMR Internal Mold Releases.
Mix with resin prior to addition of catalyst and other resin additives.
This product can improve productivity, promote better demolding, gives less tool down time and better looking parts.

Also useful when mixed into thermoplastics and rubbers at 0.1 - 1.0% wt.

Unregulated for shipping: non-flammable, non-hazardous
 

 
Marbalease® IMR-2 Internal Mold Release - Epoxy Pultrusion Resins
 
 
 
 
 
 
Marbalease® IMR-2 Internal Mold Release is a liquid process aid additive for use in the pultrusion thermoset composite production method using Epoxy resins. Especially recommended for amine cured systems. Typically added at rates of 0.5 – 2.0% to the pultrusion resin formulation, MARBALEASE® IMR-2 Internal Mold Release aids the release of pultruded composite from the die wall as the composite moves through the die. It contains no wax, silicone or metallic stearates. Benefits can include improved part mechanical and cosmetic properties by improving wetting of the reinforcement, better dispersion of fillers and other additives, reduced matrix viscosity, enhanced antistatic properties, and lower pulling force requirements during processing of pultruded composites. MARBALEASE® IMR-2 Internal Mold Release is a non-exuding polymeric blend of fatty acids and amines, allowing parts to emerge ready for post-finishing without solvent wash or abrasion
