EPON SU-8
Polymeric Solid Epoxy Novolac Resin, Improved High Temperature Strength, Thermal Stability, Reactivity and Chemical Resistance
EPON SU-8 is a polymeric solid epoxy novolac resin possessing an average epoxide group functionality around eight. Compatible with bisphenol A-based epoxy resins, imparting improved high temperature strength, thermal stability, reactivity and chemical resistance. Prepreg laminates and graphite or boron reinforced composites with EPON SU-8 attain the maximum strength retention and thermal stability possible for an epoxy matrix system at elevated temperatures. Epoxy molding powders prepared with EPON SU-8 are characterized by an outstanding combination of flow stability and short press cycles.
