The Acrylic Laminating Resin 80:20 from Algeos is a high-quality, transparent thermoplastic resin known for its durability and skin-friendly properties, ideal for orthotic and prosthetic applications. This versatile resin is formulated to bond effectively with other acrylic resins, allowing for a customised strength and flexibility profile tailored to specific orthotic needs. Its 80:20 formulation ratio strikes a balance between rigidity and pliability, making it especially useful for producing long-lasting prosthetic sockets and orthotic shells that require both strength and user comfort.

A unique feature of this resin is its ease of use; it cures quickly and effectively with a small amount of hardener, either in paste or powder form, providing a smooth, professional finish. This quality makes it a preferred choice for clinicians and technicians aiming for precision in custom prosthetic design. Its transparent nature enhances aesthetic appeal, allowing the final product to maintain a clean, unobtrusive appearance while allowing any necessary markings or embedded elements to remain visible.

Flexible Properties

Due to its flexible nature, this resin can adapt to various applications, including lamination processes that require layering with reinforcement materials like carbon fibre or fibreglass. Such combinations enhance durability and strength without significantly adding weight, making the resin suitable for patients who need both robust support and lightweight comfort in their orthotic or prosthetic devices.

Additionally, the resin’s hypoallergenic properties make it suitable for sensitive skin, reducing the risk of irritation for individuals with prolonged device use. This feature is crucial for patient compliance, especially in applications where the orthotic or prosthetic device needs to be worn for extended periods.

Overall, the Acrylic Laminating Resin 80:20 is an adaptable, high-performance material that meets the rigorous demands of orthotic and prosthetic production, providing a reliable, durable solution for clinicians aiming to create high-quality, comfortable, and long-lasting devices for their patients.
