Composites

Primaset® resins and Primacure® curatives are high performance products, which are used in advanced composite materials for aerospace, space, automotive and industrial applications. These materials bring very good thermal stability, good mechanical properties and have a low toxicity profile. Primaset® resins and Primacure® curatives can be used in various known composite technologies (prepreg, infusion, RTM, filament winding, pultrusion, additive manufacturing etc.) enabling the use of composites for high volume and high performance applications.

Primadur® resins show a very low viscosity and can therefore be an alternative for styrene in glass fibre reinforced parts.
