VE resins are a combination of both polyester resin and epoxy resins best properties. While they have high mechanical strength values similar to epoxy resins, they are easy to apply similar to unsaturated polyester resins. They are impact and fatigue resistant, have low water absorbtion values, and excellent electrical and thermal properties. Vinyl ester resins are compatible with glassfiber, carbon fiber, and aramid fibers. Vinyl esters are used for chemical resistant tanks, yachts and wind turbine blades productions.
Vinyl ester resins have low polar groups on chemical backbone and are more resistant to hydrolysis compared to polyester resins.

Due to Polives resins’ lower polar group concentrations, they have higher hydrolytic resistance against water compared to polyester resins. Their structure enables high flexural, tensile and HDT values. The special chemical backbone of vinyl ester resins prevent hydrolysis of ester groups. Unsaturation at the end of the structure provides for a full cure to obtain optimum properties. Polives resins’ special chemical backbone, with hydroxyl functionality at the end of the chain, offers very good wetting of glassfibers, carbon and aramide fibers.
Flexural Strength
Flexural Strenght test is the deformation of material under stress in the direction of bending. The maximum stress sustained by the specimen during the test is called Flexural Strenght.
Tensile Strength
Tensile Strength is the measure of force required to break the sample under a tensile stress.
Impact Strenght
Impact Strenght is the amount of energy that material can absorb under sudden impact.
