Composite Resin Systems for Chassis Design

Build the foundation for high-performance chassis systems with advanced composites designed for durability, safety, and efficiency.

VISIOMER® Specialty Methacrylates provide a lower-odor and less hazardous alternative to traditional monomers, supporting safer handling and more sustainable production processes without sacrificing performance. These materials act as effective reactive diluents in widely used composite resin systems, such as vinyl ester (VE) and unsaturated polyester (UPR), helping to improve processability and end-product quality.

They contribute to optimized mechanical strength, enhanced water resistance, and smoother processing, making them well suited for demanding automotive applications. In addition, advanced crosslinking agents enable the development of composites with strong structural integrity, long-term durability, and reliable performance under challenging conditions. This versatile chemistry supports engineers and formulators in creating high-performance solutions tailored to specific design requirements.

• VISIOMER® 1,4-BDDMA and VISIOMER® PEG 200 DMA– Crosslinkers for structural integrity, durability and long-term performance
• VISIOMER® Terra IBOMA and VISIOMER® c-HMA – Reactive diluents that optimize mechanical strength, water resistance and processing efficiency in vinyl ester (VE) and unsaturated polyester (UP) resins

Your advantage:

• Increased stiffness and strength for structural chassis parts
• Enhanced durability under mechanical and environmental stress
• Reduced component weight for improved fuel efficiency and EV range
