Methacrylate Resins

Viscorise

Viscorise has been developed for the UV-cured pipe rehabilitation process and is suitable for inversion lining repair. As matrix material, the resin is available exclusively in pre-impregnated composites. Recommended work temperature range is from +41 °F to +104 °F.

Viscorise

Application focus

Viscorise has been developed for the UV-cured pipe rehabilitation process and is suitable for inversion lining repair.

System type

Viscorise resin is a methacrylate-based, two-component system that already contains the necessary UV initiator.

Viscosity

low initial viscosity for impregnation, high viscosity during installation

Primary benefit

controlled viscosity build-up

Viscorise

Characterization

Built for UV rehabilitation workflows.
