TYVcure UVMX
Methacrylate Resins
TYVcure UVMX has been developed for the UV-cured pipe rehabilitation process, suitable for inversion lining repair. It can be used as a matrix material for in-situ or for pre-impregnated composites.
TYVcure UVMX is a methacrylate-based, one-component system that includes the necessary UV initiator and is completely Styrene-free.
