SynChem – Resins & Varnishes Voltatex ® 4020 1-component resin
Voltatex® 4020 is a styrene based, thermosetting, ready-to-use, blue-grey pigmented one pack ready-to-use imprgnating resin with high capillary activity, based on unsaturated polyesterimide resins.
- single component
- coverage of rust
- improved protection against climate influences
- high efficiency due to favourable curing conditions
- excellent impregnating result at low material consumption
The cured resin compound is characterized by:
- good resistance against solvent gases
- thermal long therm stress
Application
Suitable for:
- Insulation systems of thermal class 200 (N)
Impregnating of:
- transformers
- stabilisers

Delivery forms
Voltatex® 4020 is delivered in 20 kg one-way-cans.
Storage
The resin can be stored for up to 4 months at max. 25 °C if sealed correctly in original containers. Opened containers have to be resealed and protected against direct daylight!
Hardening
In order to minimize evaporation of reactive components while curing the impregnated objects should be heated up to the curing temperature in the shortest possible time. The air flow in curung oven should be kept to the minimum permitted by safety considertions.
Curing times: at 150 °C: 2-3 h
Protection
Voltatex® 4020 is biologically inactive and safe to health. Implement normal protective measures when processing the liquid dip resin: See the Material safety data sheet (MSDS).
Cleaning
Once cured Voltatex® 4020 is almost insoluble. Threfore, application equipment should be cleaned regularly with cleaner
Voltatex® T050. All equipment cleaning and maintenance should be carried out in accordance with the equipment manufacuter's instructions.
Processing
The impregnating Resin can be applied by using:
- all kind of conventional dip & bake equipment
- continuous and vacuum dip processes
- VPI process
Unlimited tank stability can be achieved as long as Voltatex® 4020 is kept below 25 °C and at least 10 % of the tank content is used and replaced with fresh resin per month. Cooling of the resin is needed provided the ambient temperature is exceeding the recommended maximum temperature. In order to avoid sedimentation of pigments Voltatex® 4020 need to be stirred up in the delivered packaging prior to filling into the tank. Additionally, to keep the material homogneously while processing, a continouos or repetitive stirring schedule has to be set up. It is highly recommended to install a motor-powered stirring unit in the storage tank. For optimum process viscosity it is possible to add Voltatex® T031.
