Marble
Silmar pioneered marble casting resins and they deliver the strength, durability and beauty needed in cultured marble and onyx products. With hundreds of millions of pounds of sold worldwide, SIL90BA-585 became the standard by which competitive marble resins are judged. Resins used in cultured marble applications need color consistency, excellent air release properties, and good thermal shock properties to withstand years of use.
An unsaturated polyester resin pre-promoted for ambient temperature cure with MEK peroxide. This resin is designed for general purpose cast marble applications and can be used with all types of molds in bathtubs and unilav manufacturing. It has an excellent thermal shock performance, consistent color, excellent cure properties and resistance to cracking during fabrication.
This is our unsaturated polyester resin; pre-promoted for ambient temperature cure with MEKP catalyst. It contains styrene monomer. This resin has a natural matrix color, good air release, medium viscosity, high filler loading and excellent physical properties. It is designed for general purpose cast marble applications.
Our unsaturated polyester resin pre-promoted for room temperature cure with MEK peroxide. It contains styrene monomer. This resin is a light colored, high viscosity polyester resin designed for synthetic marble casting applications. It's unique cure profile, low shrinkage and reduced exothermal development makes this product very forgiving and ideal for bathtub and shower receptor fabrication.
An unsaturated polyester resin pre-promoted for ambient temperature cure with MEKP catalyst. It contains styrene monomer. It has a natural matrix color, good air release, high viscosity, medium gel time and excellent physical properties. It is designed for general purpose cast marble application.
Dual Purpose
Our SIL94 Series resins are the perfect choice when marble, onyx or granite products are desired to be made using the same resin. For color consistency, versatility and inventory control the SIL94 products offer the manufacturer the best match.
An ortho medium viscosity marble/onyx resin. It cures a very low color and makes very translucent onyx. This resin will fit a wide range of manufacturing conditions. SIL94BA-990A is a version of SIL94BA-990 with air-releasing agents.
This unsaturated polyester resin is prepromoted for room temperature cure with MEKP catalyst. It contains styrene monomer and is designed for marble/onyx two-way use.
Onyx
The Silmar SIL92BA-793C onyx resin has been formulated to specifically meet our customer’s needs in order to make the best onyx castings. It features a good, consistent cure while maintaining very low color.
This is the world's leading resin for synthetic onyx production. It is designed to produce clear, translucent casting when used with pigments, dyes, and fillers such as glass frit or alumina trihydrate. Bathtubs, unilavs, sinks and flastock may be cast from this resin. When properly finished, these units are almost identical in appearance to natural onyx and soapstone. Neutral base tone permits a wide variety of coloration.
DCPD Marble
This is our unsaturated polyester resin pre-promoted for room temperature cure with MEKP initiator. It contains styrene monomer. It has moderate to low shrinkage, good filler wetting and air release and is designed for good general- purpose marble casting applications.
An unsaturated polyester resin pre-promoted for room temperature cure with MEKP initiator. It contains styrene monomer and wax. This resin has a low viscosity, moderate to low shrinkage, good filler wetting and air release and is designed for general-purpose marble casting applications.
An unsaturated polyester resin pre-promoted for room temperature cure with MEKP initiator. It contains styrene monomer and wax. This resin has a medium viscosity, low shrinkage, low controlled exotherm, good filler wetting and air release and is designed for general-purpose marble casting applications.
