Product Description
Description
Acrystal® Prima: The versatile solution for creative and technical projects
Acrystal® Prima is an innovative, water-based 2-component acrylic resin casting and laminating system that offers an exceptional range of applications. From architecture and art to industrial applications - Acrystal® Prima is the choice for professionals and dedicated hobbyists.
Main areas of application:
- Architecture & Interior Design: Facades, decorative walls, stair elements
- Art & Craft: Sculptures, statues, decorative objects
- Stage & set construction: Theater, Film, Events
- Model Making & Prototyping: Architectural models, industrial prototypes, dioramas
- Theme Parks & Museums: Figures, exhibits, replicas
- Industry: Molds, models for various purposes
Advantages:
- Versatile processing methods: casting, laminating, spraying
- Weather-resistant and UV-stable
- Fast demolding (40-90 min.)
- High detail fidelity and surface hardness
- Eco-friendly: non-toxic, odorless, water-based
- Good adhesion to Styrofoam and rigid foams
- Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications
The ease of use and precise mixing ratio of 1 part resin to 2.5 parts powder enable trouble-free processing, whether by casting, laminating, or injection molding. Acrystal® Prima is characterized by a fast demolding time and high level of detail, allowing for the quick and efficient production of cost-effective and precise molds. The material's robust and durable surface ensures high surface hardness and reduced susceptibility to breakage, making it an excellent choice for demanding projects.
Whether you are creating creative artworks, producing precise technical models, or designing demanding architectural elements, Acrystal® Prima offers the flexibility and performance you need for your projects. Discover the diverse possibilities of this innovative material and bring your ideas to life!
Non-toxic
UV-resistant
Curing without shrinkage
Low Exothermicity
Areas of Application
Indoor and Outdoor: Ideal for facades, stage and set design
Models and Prototypes: Suitable for master models, architectural models, and prototype tools
Laminates: Production of light, thin, and very strong laminates, e.g., facade panels by laminating with Acrystal® glass fiber mat (quadraxial)
Architecture: Design of facades and building elements.
Interior Design: Use in interior design, e.g., for decorative walls and stair elements.
Arts and crafts: Creation of handcrafted artworks and decorative objects. Perfect for statues, figures, and art objects of all kinds
Art: Production of sculptures and artworks for galleries and public spaces.
Theme Parks: Design of figures and thematic elements for amusement parks.
Museography: Production of exhibits and replicas for museums.
Models: Construction of precise architectural models and dioramas.
Scenography: Use in stage construction and for sets in theater and film. In combination with the final coat Acrystal Finition, it is also suitable for outdoor areas without any issues.
Events: Creation of temporary installations and decorative elements for events.
Molds & Models: Production of molds and models for industrial and artistic purposes.
Environmental and Health Benefits

- Non-toxic: No hazardous components or solvents
- Odorless: No unpleasant odor
- Safe: No toxic emissions into the atmosphere
Special Features
The special formulation of Acrystal® Prima ensures good surface hardness with reduced brittleness. Molded parts made of Acrystal® can be demolded and machined after just 40–90 minutes. With Acrystal® Prima, cost-effective molds can be produced quickly and precisely. The surface can be made glossy and weather-resistant by applying a coat of Acrystal® Finition. Acrystal® Prima adheres very well to Styrofoam and other rigid foams, allowing the production of lightweight and transportable elements. By incorporating a few layers of Acrystal® Quadraxial fabric, compression-resistant, walkable surfaces are achieved.
Processing
- Mixing: Stir powder "Basic Crystal" into the liquid "Acrystal Prima" (Mixing ratio: 1 part resin to 2.5 parts powder).
- Application Methods:
- Pouring: Pour into a silicone mold using standard deaeration methods.
- Laminating: Apply with a brush or spatula, incorporating fiberglass matting if necessary.
- Spraying: Apply with a cup gun.
