Polipol 3455 polyester with 60-80% filler addition (dolomite, calcite, aluminum hydroxide, quartz); It is suitable for the production of products such as artificial marble countertops (marble), sinks, sinks and shower trays by casting method. However, non-transparent statuettes, key chains, etc. It can also be used in the manufacture of souvenirs.
Sample artificial marble formula is given below. Depending on the workshop conditions and the characteristics of the product to be poured, the filling rate can reach up to 80%.It is recommended to use Poligranule or Poliflake together with Polijel 213 to obtain granite effect countertops.

Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 6
- Storage & Handling Conditions
The resin should be stored in its original unopened and undamaged packaging in a closed environment, in a dry environment, below 23°C. If the resin temperature drops below 18°C, it must be heated to at least 18°C before use. Compliance with local and national regulations must be ensured when storing and handling flammable liquids. Changes in properties can be observed depending on the storage temperature. Shelf life decreases at high temperatures. Since the resin contains styrene monomer, its shelf life is reduced when exposed to direct sunlight. Store in the dark and in its 100% lightproof packaging.
Avoid contact with food, drink or food items. Take precautions against static electricity generation. Use only in well ventilated areas. Keep away from open heat, flame, spark. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, clothing. Do not spill into the environment. Dispose of waste according to local and national regulations. Use personal protective equipment during use. Always keep the packaging cover closed. Avoid contact with steam by providing adequate ventilation in the work area. Its empty packaging is subject to the same classification as the product.
