Water soluble compound, easiliy mixed with water
Aquapour™ is a powdered mandrel material, which is easily mixed with water. Aquapour™ may be poured or injected into moulds to form complex mandrels for composite lay-ups. It is demouldable after drying at room temperature and is suitable for all current resin systems and prepregs up to a 195 °C curing temperature. It is necessary to dry it completely at at least 100 °C in order to wash it away.
Aquapour™ is readily soluble in cold tap water and can easily be washed away from the finished part. The wash-away feature minimizes the possibility of damaging fine details.
Mixing ratio: Aquapour™ : water = 100 : 82 parts per weight
Benefits:
Easily mixed with water • pourable and injectable • easily dried in a convection oven • environmentally friendly, no special disposal procedures required • non-toxic and odourless • easily repaired and re-formed • reduces labor • washes away in cold tap water • makes complex part manufacturing simple • saves money • compatible with all commercial resins and prepreg compounds • saves time
Aquaseal™ is recommended to seal the mandrel and prevent resin migration. Aquapour™ could be used as filler as welll. Therefore, it is recommended to use less water (ca. 100 : 45 parts per weight) to get a paste-like consistency.
