SB322 is a one part low viscosity bismaleimide infusion resin developed for high temperature composite tooling with service temperature up to 250°C.
—Read allThe resin is characterized by low viscosity at impregnation and molding temperatures (200 cP at 100 ° C), which makes it possible to obtain CFRP with low porosity. Pre-curing at 190 °C allows to remove composite tool from plastic model. Post-curing at 230°С provides service temperature of tool up to 250°.
