Model Work Norpol surface fillers are used in model work for filling grooves and irregular surfaces. In many cases key requirement is the absence of sagging when applied in thick joints. Also, as tolerances can be small achieving smooth and accurate surfaces is important. Norpol surface fillers provide quick-curing characteristics, easy sanding and low shrink properties. In the Norpol surface filler range, Reichhold has products recommended for the basic or first application layer, and for the top layer where a smooth surface is required. These products offer a nice and even surface with...

Bonding GRP Laminates in Marine In the construction of boats and vessels, decks and hulls have to be bonded together, as well as single components to the hull or deck. Reichhold offers a range of bonding pastes that allow for reliable bonding of GRP laminates. Some of these have a white colour, and therefore are preferred for Marine applications. Vinyl ester based bonding pastes provide higher toughness and are currently being used for bonding stringers and the engine bed on to the hull. Using bonding pastes for the bonding of GRP laminates has proven to simplify manufacturing processes and...

Containers, Vessels and Pipes Applications 7 There are numerous industrial process- and application areas where the Norpol FI- Series and Norpol Colle- Series have proved most appropriate, such as in the production of containers, vessels and pipes. The products are very versatile and have proved suitable for fi lling grooves and corners. For surface treatment of GRP laminates, such as leveling uneven surfaces, the Norpol surface fi ller recommended is one that builds well, is easy to apply, offers quick curing and is easy to abrade. To obtain a smooth surface that needs less fi nishing...

Transportation Applications The Norpol bonding paste series has proved very well-suited to the transportation sector. The products are used for bonding and fi lling styling parts on cars where the chassis or parts of the chassis have been made out of GRP laminates. Some of the bonding paste range have also been successfully used for attaching metal parts to GRP laminates. Another application area is fi lling corners, voids and areas where there is a risk of air pockets forming when laminating. When it comes to surface treatment, Reichhold offers products ideal for smoothing the surface...

Windmills Rotor blade bonding is an especially demanding area where bonding paste from the Norpol FI- Series is tested thoroughly. The rotor blades’ light constructions are typically moulded in a vacuum infusion process as two individual shells and then bonded together. The rotor blades, often more than 50 metres long, are subjected to extreme loads and tremendous dynamic stress. Norpol bonding pastes comply with all quality standards and are used in all joints.

Lifeboats Material for Extreme Conditions 10 For manufacturers of lifeboats the slogan Safety First is the guiding principle in product development. Consequentially the design and construction as well as the use of materials are of uttermost importance in part engineering. All vessels have to pass the strongest quality and strength tests before they are released to the market. Here, there is no room for compromise. Lifeboat free fall systems provide cutting-edge technology, particularly developed for the rough seas in the North Sea, including the world’s largest lifeboat for vertical...

Technology that Performs Advanced Test Equipment Specifi c end product requirements as well as directions given by the classifi cation authorities, has led to focussed R&D resources. Advanced test-equipment has made it possible to develop products that comply with the highest quality standards, such as bonding pastes used in the windmill industry. One of Reichhold’s strengths is the wellstructured Technical Service Team which ensures that further development of the FI-Series product range will continue to be in line with real, specifi c customer demands. Some of the tests that can be...

The Laminate Should Break Before The Joint The main quality requirement to Norpol FI- Series bonding paste products is that the laminate, and not the joint, should actually be the first to break, regardless of the forces the laminate is exposed to. More customers demand documentation confirming that the material meets the required properties. We recognise the importance of offering thoroughly tested and documented products. In contrast to static testing, proper utilisation of dynamic testing provides a possibility to evaluate the products’ long term performance. When a material is exposed...
