A two-part epoxy resin for general applications to produce composites with operating temperatures up to 80 °C by vacuum infusion, RTM, winding and manual lamination.
—Read allT20-60 is a two-part low-temperature epoxy resin for general application to produce a composite wares by vacuum infusion, RTM, winding and manual lamination. It has a low viscosity at impregnation and molding temperatures (300 cP at 25°C), which makes it suitable for producing composites with low porosity.
T20-60 is a long-living resin so it can be used to manufacture large wares. A high cracking resistance allows to take full advantage of reinforcing material strength.
