QCell
QCell is an advanced functional reinforcing ceramic composite with microsphere engineered structure used as triple function high performance filler materials:
Crack Repair: Twice as much as resin quantity (200% by volume)
Screeding: Same quantity as resin used (100% by volume)
SlipRes: 10% (by Volume) of the quantity of resin used.
QCell with engineered spherical structure and ceramic composition offers advanced reinforcing filler functionality with many benefits such as lightness, high compressive strength, thermal resistance (high melting point), inert and chemically unreactive.
The unique hollow and lightness property of microsphere QCell materials allows the spheres rise to the surface due to its low density and reduced specific gravity. These unique properties also result in enhanced rheology, better flow properties and easy to mix, easy to use and easy to apply.
QCell is a light weight, microscopic ceramic bubbles, used as a filler with Polyester & Epoxy Resins. QCell have a reasonable compression strength and are generally used to get bulk without adding too much weight. They are also ideal for fairing. QCells are easily sanded.
Most Epoxy resins have an average density of 1.2 g/mL, while the QCell has much lower density of 0.7 g/ml or less, resulting in some of the spherical particles rising to the surface, creating unique texture and Slip Resistant finish surface. Those suspended spherical particles and those entrapped into the body of the Epoxy matrix can participate into reinforcement of epoxy matric structure, resulting in its enhanced compression strength and improved other physical properties.
