Cobalt 6% Accelerator, commonly known as Cobalt Octoate, is a high-purity metal-organic compound essential for the curing of unsaturated polyester (UP) and vinyl ester resins. As a powerful oxidation catalyst, it works in tandem with organic peroxides—primarily MEKP (Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide)—to initiate rapid, uniform polymerization at room temperature.
Whether you are involved in fiberglass (FRP) laminating, casting, or high-gloss gel coat applications, our Cobalt 6% formulation provides the consistent gel times and reliable through-dry required for professional-grade results.
Key Features & Benefits
Rapid Curing Efficiency: Significantly shortens demolding times, increasing production throughput for industrial molding and repairs.
Superior Surface Finish: Acts as an active 'surface drier,' minimizing air inhibition and ensuring a tack-free, high-gloss finish.
Optimized Color Stability: The deep violet liquid counteracts the natural yellowish tint of resins, enhancing the whiteness and clarity of finished articles.
Consistent Performance: Formulated to remain stable under varying humidity and atmospheric conditions, ensuring repeatable results every batch.
Versatile Compatibility: Ideal for general-purpose resins, isophthalic resins, and vinyl ester systems used in marine, automotive, and construction industries.
