NADIC methyl anhydride (NMA) is a liquid alicyclic anhydride commonly used to cure epoxy resins in many challenging applications, including fiber reinforced composites used in high performance aerospace and military applications, as well as mechanically demanding applications like filament wound bearings. The excellent electrical properties and high temperature performance make NMAcured epoxies outstanding materials for encapsulating electronic components and circuits. NMA demonstrates many excellent characteristics when used as a curing agent for epoxy resins

NADIC Methyl Anhydride 407 (NMA 407) curing agent formulated with an efficient latent proprietary catalyst that imparts high reactivity at process temperatures, while maintaining excellent pot life. NMA 407 is commonly used to cure epoxy resins in many challenging applications, including fiber reinforced composites used in high performance aerospace and military applications, as well as mechanically demanding applications. NMA 407 is ideal in processes such as pultrusion, filament winding and infusion of parts requiring excellent high temperature performance. The excellent electrical properties and high temperature performance make NMAcured epoxies outstanding materials for encapsulating electronic components and circuits.

ECA 100 is a light colored, low viscosity liquid epoxy curing agent designed for use in converting epoxy resins to highly crosslinked polymers with excellent physical and electrical properties. ECA 100 performs well when used in demanding applications, such as filament winding, pultrusion, and other forms of lamination, as well as electrical encapsulating, insulating, casting, and potting. ECA 100 imparts ease of handling due to low viscosity, low toxicity and low volatility. It is a mixture, which is a liquid at normal room temperature. If the product crystallizes, it should return to liquid by heating 38-55°C (100- 130°F) for 2-8 hours.

ECA 100KF is a low viscosity, light colored, non-crystallizing liquid anhydride epoxy curing agent based on methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride (MHHPA). For convenience, it is pre-catalyzed with an accelerator that contributes to good glass transition temperature (Tg), long pot life, and light color in cured polymers. This product is designed for use in converting epoxy resins to highly cross-linked polymers with excellent physical and electrical properties. ECA 100KF imparts ease of handling due to its low viscosity, low volatility and low freezing point.

Dixie dodecenylsuccinic anhydride (DDSA) is a slightly viscous liquid anhydride. DDSA can be used as an epoxy curing agent for electrical potting compounds, coatings, conductive adhesives, and syntactic foams and also as an intermediate in the preparation of corrosion inhibitors for oils and greases. It cane be used as a leather tanning agent. When used as an epoxy-curing agent, it has a long pot life at room temperature and gives excellent electrical properties and flexibility to castings. DDSA can be used in blends with other anhydrides to modify physical properties of the mixture and to lend flexibility and reduce brittleness of cured polymers.
