Solutions by Composite Application
Thermoset Resin Systems
- ALBIPOX® – Elastomer-modified epoxy resins used to toughen epoxy systems, improving impact resistance and processing. ALBIPOX® F 080 and 9013 are designed for fiber-reinforced composites; ALBIPOX® 8001 is used as tackifier.
- POLYVEST® – Liquid polybutadienes for enhanced flexibility and chemical resistance in thermoset systems. Available non-functionalized, hydroxyl-terminated and maleic anhydride-functionalized, including mass-balanced eCO grades.
Thermoplastic Composites
- VESTOPLAST® – Amorphous poly-alpha olefins for improved adhesion and compatibility in thermoplastic matrices.
Surface & Interface Optimization
- DYNASYLAN® – Silane coupling agents that boost adhesion between fibers and resin, improving durability and mechanical strength. The range includes vinyl-, amino-, epoxy-, mercapto- and ureido-functional silanes, aqueous HYDROSIL oligomers, and Dynasylan® HYDROSIL 2999 for anti-static effects on inorganic surfaces.
- VESTANAT® – VESTANAT® IPDI, a cycloaliphatic diisocyanate and raw material for lightstable, weather-resistant polyurethanes used in gel coats, coatings and in-mold coatings, enhancing surface protection, weather resistance of composites.
- VPS 1178 – Multifunctional vinylbenzyl-aminofunctional silane acting as coupling agent between inorganic fibers and organic matrices.
