Poliya’s Polives vinylester resins can transform and revolutionize your current composite part manufacturing systems.
Because of their chemical structures, Polives vinylester resins are more resistant to water and hydrolytic effects due to minimal polar groups provide maximum chemical resistance and also enhance mechanical properties such as elongation, flexibility and high HDT values.
The special structure of Polives vinylesters disable the hydrolysis of ester groups and enable the full curing of edges of the chain. Therefore they allow great resistance to alkali and acidic environments.
Vinylester resins also have free hydroxyl groups which are reinforced with fiberglass, carbon fiber and aramid which give it very high mechanical values.

When Polives vinylester resins are cured, only the chain edge double bonds will create cross links. When stressed, these cross links they elongate more than polyester resins and are able to absorb more mechanical effects and thermal shocks.
These advanced properties make Polives vinyl ester resins ideal for high strength-lower weight high performance composite applications such as, wind turbine blades, special coating, boats, shipbuilding, aircraft and automotive industries.
