vinylester vs epoxy

Anyone have a good link / reference that I can compare a vinylester infused laminate with an epoxy and post cured epoxy infused laminate?

We are in the process of infusing with a good lower exotherm vinylester and I want to find out if the cost jump and post finishing involved with epoxy / post cured epoxy is worth it or not.

Any thoughts / comments / direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Those will get you started

 

i like hetron992 for infussion over derakane much less gassing

 

Thanks, I will look into these.

Has anyone actually done tests (real world tests) to compare VE infused laminates against epoxy infused (post cured / non post cured) laminates?

I understand the properties and differences between epoxies and VE / GP and DCPD resins, as well as strength, weight, bonding, etc... I'm just wondering where is the point of diminishing returns lay?

 

We tried but unfortuantely faced a probelm of Pre Relaese on VE after curing

 

Careful here do not get "oversold on resins" the VE's work just fine in most cases.
