Cytec Introduces
High-Performance Liquid Resin at JEC Composites
Innovative one-part infusion resin provides a unique balance
of performance and processability
Paris, France, April 14, 2010 – Cytec Engineered Materials
(CEM), a business unit of Cytec Industries Inc. (NYSE: CYT) is
introducing its new PRISM™ EP2400 liquid infusion resin at JEC
Composites 2010 on April 13 – 15 at the Porte de Versailles
Exhibition Center. This unique, one-part toughened epoxy system
represents a step forward in infusion resin capability,
delivering primary structure level performance without limiting
reinforcement or processing type. With PRISM EP2400 resin,
manufacturers no longer face trade-offs between performance and
processing; they get resin infusion without compromise.
The PRISM EP2400 system uses a proprietary combination of
toughening technologies in a resin designed for enhanced
processability. The result is a wide processing window, extended
stable pot-life, superior flow behavior and a high degree of
mechanical toughness. PRISM EP2400 resin is compatible with all
major infusion processes, can be used with any type of textile
configuration and can also be processed out-of-autoclave. PRISM
EP2400 resin simplifies manufacturing processes reducing quality
concerns and enables design of large complex integrated
structures that reduce part count and save weight.
PRISM EP2400’s high mechanical toughness meets aerospace
performance requirements for primary structure applications
including bulkheads, fuselage and window frames, integrated wing
box structures and engine cases. Cytec Engineered Materials
offers a full range of complementary products including binder
coatings, low resin content films and tackifiers.
CEM’s product portfolio includes advanced composites and
adhesives used in aerospace, biomedical, electronics, electrical
and automotive applications. JEC Composites Show attendees can
learn more about the PRISM EP2400 resin system and the entire
line of CEM products at the Cytec Engineered Materials booth
located in Pavilion 1, Stand G31. In addition, information is
available at http://www.cytec.com.
