Composite Materials

The Primacure® product range is a powerful class of low toxic, high quality and easy to handle epoxy curatives, which provide increased use temperatures, low moisture absorption and high impact resistance. Primacure® products also offer brilliant mechanical and chemical resistance. As polyurethane chain extenders, Primacure® products can be used for advanced cast and spray applications where high thermo-mechanical, chemical and abrasion resistance are key requirements. Our Primacure® portfolio offers low toxic alternatives and high performance solutions as MOCA replacement in polyurethane applications.

The Primaset® resins are a novel class of high performance thermoset cyanate ester resins. They are characterized by glass temperatures up to 400°C (800°F).  The Primaset® product range offers very good thermal stability, dielectric properties and flame, smoke and toxicity profile combined with an epoxy-like processing. Primaset® resins do not emit volatile substances during processing, which significantly improves the working environment of operators. Application areas include electronics, aerospace, automotive and industrial composites and compounds. Our Primaset® cyanate ester resins are available in solid, liquid or solvated form.

Primadur® is a commercially novel class of low viscous room temperature curable­ polyaddition thermoset resins. Primadur® brand products are a family of phenol-free, bisphenol A free, styrene free, isocyanate free and sol­vent free general purpose thermoset resins with no classified toxic or harmful chemicals. This results in less worker risk in industrial setting. Primadur® resins provide high tensile strength and high hardness at tuneable potlife. Primadur® resins can be processed by various production processes such as spaying, pouring, filament winding, wet compression moulding, resin transfer moulding and infusion.
