Aka-Resin Melamine

White mineral-filled melamine resin for hot mounting. For universal mounting with low shrinkage. Great for hardness testing due to the contrast the white colour provides.

Curing specifications
Dia., force, heating/cooling time:
25 mm: 10 kN, 4-5 min/2-3 min
30 mm: 20 kN, 4-6 min/2-4 min
40 mm: 30 kN, 5-7 min/3-5 min
50 mm: 50 kN, 6-9 min/4-6 min

Cure at 160 – 180 °C, 250 bar, high cooling rate.

If the mount is not fully cured, increase time.

The parameters above can vary a lot depending on the characteristics of the mounting press used.
