Allnex ROSKYDAL K 58 Polyester Resin – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary application area for ROSKYDAL K 58?

A: ROSKYDAL K 58 is a reactive diluent and co-resin specifically designed for unsaturated polyester (UP) systems used in high-performance gel coats, laminating resins, and casting applications—particularly where low viscosity, good air release, and balanced reactivity are required.


Q2: How does ROSKYDAL K 58 differ from standard styrene in UP formulations?

A: Unlike conventional styrene, ROSKYDAL K 58 is a low-volatility, difunctional reactive diluent that contributes to improved crosslink density and reduced styrene emissions. It offers enhanced compatibility with various UP resins and supports better mechanical performance in cured composites without significantly compromising pot life.


Q3: Is ROSKYDAL K 58 suitable for low-VOC or emission-reduced formulations?

A: Yes—ROSKYDAL K 58 is frequently selected to partially replace styrene in VOC-reduction strategies due to its lower vapor pressure and higher molecular weight, helping formulators meet increasingly stringent environmental and occupational exposure requirements without major reformulation efforts.


Q4: What storage conditions are recommended for ROSKYDAL K 58?

A: Store in tightly sealed containers under cool, dry, and well-ventilated conditions, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and strong oxidizing agents. Prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures or moisture may affect stability and handling properties over time.
