Biresin® LS

Product catalog summary
Areas of Application
Biresin® LS is used for manufacturing precise and robust laminates with glass and/or carbon fibers, laminated foam, compression molds, backstampings of molds, models, negatives, and tools. It is also suitable for coupling layers.
Product Benefits
The resin offers multi-purpose applications with different hardeners, good soaking and wetting properties, and supports high filler addition. It provides options for longer potlife and lower viscosity with Biresin® F4, or shorter potlife and thinner layers with Biresin® S10.
Description
Biresin® LS is a two-component epoxy system with a yellowish-transparent resin and various amine-based hardeners. It is unfilled and available in different viscosities and densities.
Physical Data
The product exhibits a density of 1.2 g/cm³ and a Shore hardness of D 83. It has an E-Modulus ranging from 2,420 to 2,900 MPa, flexural strength from 88 to 117 MPa, compressive strength from 91 to 112 MPa, and tensile strength from 67 to 74 MPa. The heat distortion temperature varies between 46°C and 82°C.
Processing
The material should be processed at temperatures between 18 to 25°C. It is important to control the resin-to-fiber ratio and use vacuum bag conditions to achieve void-free laminates. Tools should be cleaned immediately with Sika® Reinigungsmittel 5.
Storage
The product has a minimum shelf life of 24 months when stored in original unopened containers at room temperature. Crystallization can occur at low temperatures but can be resolved by warming the resin.
Health and Safety Information
Users should refer to the Safety Data Sheet for safe handling, storage, and disposal information. Disposal must comply with regulations, and packaging should be recycled or disposed of as product waste.

The material, processing and mould temperature must be from 18 to 25°C. After mixing the two components it is easily possible to incorporate additives if necessary. Biresin® LS is applied quickly and easily due to its low viscosity. It will easily wet out fibres and incorporate high levels of fillers and powders with high binding force. The ratio between resin and selected fibre must be determined and reliably controlled. For laminates glass fibres with binding twill are better than binding cloth because of its better suppleness. It is adviced to lay up a balanced laminate to avoid distortion when...
