Evopreg® PFC502 prepregs are a range of fire-retardant, pre-impregnated composite materialsbased on a PFA (Polyfurfuryl Alcohol) bioresin. PFA is a thermosetting bioresin derived from crop waste and is similar to phenolic resin but withlower toxicity and VOC emissions. In addition to its environmental credentials, PFA hasoutstanding fire retardant properties, plus excellent temperature and chemical resistance. The prepregs can be supplied with a range of reinforcement fibers and fabric constructions,including woven and unidirectional E-glass fiber and carbon fiber. They can be consolidated byvacuum bagging, autoclave or press molding and are designed for applications includingaircraft interiors, rail interiors, marine, offshore and construction.

GMS Composites EP – 280 is a formulated epoxy resin matrix prepreg with long shelf life. The product has a versatile curing cycle from as low as 80°C or as high as 150°C, thus enabling the product to be used to produce a wide range of composite items, from large structures to numerous small components. EP-280 is available in a range of substrates such as carbon, glass or aramid. The product also has good dynamic strength properties as well as outstanding hot-wet resistance. The prepreg has good flow and the tack of EP-280 can be varied.

GMS Composites EP – 285 is a toughened epoxy resin matrix prepreg with long shelf life. The product has a versatile curing cycle from as low as 80°C or as high as 150°C, thus enabling the product to be used to produce a wide range of composite items, from large structures to numerous small components. EP-285 is available in a range of substrates such as carbon, glass or aramid. This toughened system has outstanding fracture properties and resistance to microcracking. The prepreg has good flow and the tack of EP-285 can be varied.

CM 11SF is a sandable surfacing film and Fast Isothermally Press Curable Hot Demoldable, Sandable, Class A giving surfacing film.

Evopreg® EPT110 tooling prepregs are based on a low temperature curing, toughened epoxy resin system, formulated specifically for high temperature performance, ease of lay-up and excellent surface finish. The prepregs can be supplied with a range of reinforcement fibers and fabric constructions, including carbon, glass and ampliTex™ flax, and they are best consolidated in an autoclave.

CIP Composites CIP333A has dimensional stability in high temperatures (up to 400° F) and offers excellent chemical resistance. Manufactured with meta-aramid textile and a high temperature vinyl ester resin with the solid lubricant PTFE evenly dispersed throughout the resin system.

GMS Composites EP – 290 is a nano-toughened epoxy resin matrix prepreg with long shelf life. The product has a versatile curing cycle from 100°C or as high as 150°C, thus enabling the product to be used to produce a wide range of composite items, from large structures to numerous small components. EP-290 is available in a range of substrates such as carbon, glass or aramid. This nano-toughened system has outstanding fracture properties and resistance to microcracking.

EF 14 are Flame Retardant, Highly Toughness and high energy transfer and applied in ballistic, Hard Body Armor.

CM14 resin is Mid Tg fast cure press curable prepreg system which is also dicy free formulated against waterspot/whitespot problems. CM14 resin system is especially formulated for cosmetic grade visual carbon look. Drapability is suitable for press molds and low to medium tack optimized for press curing.

AX-6111 is a General Purpose Flame Retardant Epoxy Unidirectional Prepreg.

The Evopreg® ampliTex™ + powerRibs™ system, it is possible to match the stiffness of traditional carbon-fiber components, while also reducing component weight. PowerRibs™ are a natural fiber reinforcement grid, designed to provide a significant increase in stiffness for only a minimum increase in weight. Provided as a dry reinforcement supported on a lightweight veil, they are incorporated into a layup which combines standard Evopreg® ampliTex™ prepreg with a specially-tailored resin-rich variant.

55LM is an epoxy laminate and prepreg system, reinforced with non-woven aramid fiber, with substantially lower moisture absorption compared with conventional epoxy/aramid products, even in high-humidity environments.
