Jellafin
What is Jellafin® waterproofing resin?
Jellafin®, a pressure-resistant waterproofing resin, is a two-liquid urethane resin manufactured by SEC SEAPREX Inc.
When the two liquids, "base resin" and "hardener," are mixed, they solidify to form a colorless, transparent hardened product.
Gerafin allows light and radio waves to pass through and electronic components to operate without water, even under water pressure at depths of 10,000 meters.
It also has excellent moisture-proofing, waterproofing, and electrical insulation for devices on land, enabling stable operation of IoT devices outdoors and in adverse environments.
In addition, it is expected to play a role in a wide range of fields, including deep-sea and space projects as well as infrastructure projects, by taking advantage of its feature of becoming colorless and transparent after solidification.
Feature
- A two-component urethane resin that is clear and colorless after solidification.
- Stable electrical properties (electrical insulation and dielectric constant) and high permeability to light, electromagnetic waves, and magnetism.
- Ultra-high adhesion and ultra-elastic non-adhesive material with a waterproofing effect equivalent to that of an oil seal.
- Easy to re-fuse and reseal after peeling off.
- Direct exposure to seawater and rainwater.
