Excellent toughness down to the core fiber

Depending on the application and desired modification, different products can be used for improving laminating and injection resins:

Toughening epoxy resins with copolymers [>]
(Albipox®)

• improved impact resistance over a wide temperature range
  (easier finishing)
• damage-tolerant systems
• improved inter-laminar shear strength, better fiber adhesion
• higher pressure resistance (e.g. in pipes), reduced shrinkage

Toughening epoxy resins with core-shell materials [>]
(Albidur®)

• improved impact resistance over a wide temperature range
• negative coefficient of expansion, significantly reduced shrinkage
• moderate viscosity increase on addition, no loss with modulus and Tg

Modifying epoxy resins with nanoparticles [>]
(Nanopox® F, Albipox® F)

• significantly improved modulus and flexural strength
• due to low viscosity increase, suitable for injection processes
  (e.g. RTM)
• lower CTE, reduced shrinkage
• improved surface quality (Class A)

Modification and elastification of phenolic resins with block copolymers [>]
(Albiflex®)

• improved impact resistance over a wide temperature range
• damage-tolerant laminates

Toughening unsaturated polyester resins and vinyl ester resins [>]
(Albidur®)

• improved impact resistance over a wide temperature range
  (easier finishing)
• damage-tolerant systems
• increased pressure resistance (e.g. in pipes), reduced shrinkage
• hydrophobic laminates with reduced water absorption
