High-performance Solutions for Lightweight, Durable and Efficient Composite Materials

Composites are essential to modern lightweight design, enabling strong, durable and efficient materials for demanding applications across infrastructure, renewable energy, aerospace, automotive, industrial and lifestyle markets. From pipe rehabilitation and filament winding to wind turbine blades, industrial components and aerospace systems, manufacturers need epoxy systems and crosslinking technologies that deliver reliable processing, high mechanical strength and long-term performance.

We support the composites industry with a broad portfolio of curing agents, accelerators, crosslinkers and specialty technologies for fiber-reinforced composite applications. Our solutions help improve fiber wet-out, processing flexibility, pot life, cure speed, toughness, fatigue resistance, chemical resistance, thermal stability and durability across production technologies such as CIPP, filament winding, pultrusion, prepreg, sheet molding compound, infusion and resin transfer molding.

With proven brands such as ANCAMIDE®, ANCAMINE®, AMICURE®, IMICURE®, CUREZOL®, VESTAMIN®, VESTANAT®, NANOPOX® and ALBIDUR®, Evonik Crosslinkers helps customers develop composite solutions that support lighter structures, longer service life, efficient manufacturing and reliable performance in demanding environments.

Durable & Efficient Pipeline Rehabilitation and Production

Composite pipe technologies support durable infrastructure by enabling strong, corrosion-resistant and long-lasting pipe systems. In both pipeline rehabilitation and new pipe production, epoxy systems play a critical role in achieving reliable mechanical performance, chemical resistance and efficient processing.

 

CIPP (Cured-in-Place Pipe):  

CIPP is widely used to rehabilitate damaged pipeline systems without the need for full pipe replacement. A resin-impregnated liner is inserted into the existing pipe and cured to create a new, jointless and corrosion-resistant pipe within the original structure. ANCAMIDE® and ANCAMINE® curing agents support epoxy-based CIPP systems by enabling reliable curing, good fabric wetting, suitable processing windows and durable final performance for on-site or factory impregnation processes.

Filament Winding: 

Filament winding is used to produce high-performance composite pipes, pressure vessels and cylindrical structures. Continuous fibers are embedded in an epoxy matrix to create lightweight components with excellent strength, toughness and durability. VESTAMIN®, ANCAMINE® and ANCAMIDE® technologies help formulators optimize viscosity, reactivity, thermal stability and mechanical performance for demanding pipe and fitting applications.

High-Performance Materials for Longer and More Durable Rotor Blades

Wind energy plays an important role in the transition to more sustainable power generation. As turbines become larger and rotor blades continue to increase in length, composite materials must deliver high strength, low weight, fatigue resistance and long-term durability under extreme mechanical and environmental stress.

We support wind turbine blade manufacturing with high-performance epoxy curing agents for composite structures and structural bonding applications. VESTAMIN® IPD is used in epoxy-based matrix systems for vacuum assisted resin transfer molding, also known as VARTM, helping to provide an effective balance of reactivity, pot life and final mechanical properties. These characteristics are essential for large rotor blade production, where reliable processing and long service life are critical.

ANCAMIDE® curing agents can support adhesive systems used in rotor blade bonding, where extended gel time, flexibility, mechanical strength and thermal resistance are important for longer bond lines and demanding manufacturing conditions.

By improving processing reliability, blade durability and fatigue resistance, our technologies help manufacturers produce larger, stronger and longer-lasting rotor blades that support efficient wind energy generation and reduced maintenance requirements over time.
