ALBIDURĀ® EP 5340 A

ALBIDURĀ® EP 5340 A is a concentrated dispersion, containing 40% high-performance elastomer within a cycloaliphatic epoxy resin (EEC). This product plays a vital role as a toughness modifier, particularly suited for rigid and brittle epoxy resin systems. The elastomeric component consists of a specialized silicone rubber, intricately distributed within the liquid resin as an extremely finely dispersed second phase.
