Applications
Luperox K1SN is a methyl ethyl ketone peroxide used in combination with a cobalt promoter for curing unsaturated polyester resins at room temperature. Luperox K1SN is used for applications such as hand lay-up, spray-up, centrifugal casting, filament winding, and polyester concrete. It is particularly suitable for gelcoat curing. Its low viscosity makes it ideal for spray-up techniques using external mixing (airless). By adding promoters like dimethylaniline, faster reaction speeds and shorter demolding times can be achieved.
