HexPly® M79/M79-LT is a hotmelt, thermosetting, low-exothermic epoxy resin matrix, specifically designed for prepreg applications at which short cure cycles below 100°C are required. M79/M79-LT can be used for manufacture of large industrial components, suitable for cure of thin and thick sections. M79/M79-LT exhibits a long out-life of 8 weeks at ambient conditions. M79 is supplied as moderate tack and M79-LT as low tack resin matrix.

HexFlow® VRM37 is a 350°F curing, two-part, mid-toughened epoxy resin, specifically developed to meet the demanding requirements of structural aerospace resin transfer molding (RTM) and vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM) applications. This epoxy system supports service temperatures up to 250°F. HexFlow® VRM37 Part A is a light amber color; HexFlow® VRM37 Part B is a dark purple color.

F161 is a structural, heat resistant and electrical grade epoxy formulation designed for autoclave curing. F161 is a high temperature, laminate grade epoxy resin with a 350°F (177°C) cure. F161 is unique in that it was the first resin system to meet all types and classes of MIL-R-9300 B.

HexForce™ AGP193-P has extensive in-house weaving capabilities for the manufacture of unidirectional and woven reinforcement fabrics in glass, carbon, aramid fibers and hybrids. The wide range of weave styles includes standard weaves, biaxials and multiaxials.

HexFlow® RTM6-2 resin is the bi-component version of HexFlow® RTM6 resin. Delivered as two different components, HexFlow® RTM6-2 resin provides several benefits over HexFlow® RTM6: air shipment is allowed, storage at 23± 3°C for 12 months, and bigger packages are possible (up to 378 kg). HexFlow® RTM6-2 resin is chemically the same as RTM6 resin and has the same high performance after mixing Part A and Part B. Their mixing ratio in weight is Part A : Part B (100 : 68.1). After mixing Part A and Part B, service temperatures from -60°C up to 120°C and cycle processing flexibility make HexFlow® RTM6 resin ideal for primary & secondary aerospace structures. Due to the low viscosity of HexFlow® RTM6 resin, there are long injection windows to facilitate large-parts manufacturing. Mixed HexFlow® RTM6-2 resin can be used with a wide range of HexForce®, HiTape® and HiMax™ reinforcements. If needed, binders are also available and fully compatible with HexFlow® RTM6-2 resin. They provide dimensional stability to the reinforcement and ease preforming processes. Mixed HexFlow® RTM6-2 resin, when combined with HiTape® & HiMax™ reinforcements, has comparable mechanical properties to the latest generation prepregs.

HexPly® M76 is a versatile curing toughened epoxy resin that can be cured from 275ºF (135ºC) to 350ºF (177ºC), depending on service temperature requirements. HexPly® M76 is formulated for lower temperature autoclave or press mold processing. The recommended lay-up procedure for HexPly® M76 is HSP-L4. The recommended cure procedures are HSP-C5 (275ºF) or HSP-C1 (350ºF).

HexPly® M21 is a high performance, very tough epoxy matrix for use in primary aerospace structures. It exhibits excellent damage tolerance, especially at high energy impacts. HexPly® M21 is a toughened epoxy resin system supplied with unidirectional or woven carbon or glass fibers. HexPly® M21 was developed as a controlled flow system to operate in environments up at 121°C (250°F).

HexPly® 8552 is a high performance tough epoxy matrix for use in primary aerospace structures. It exhibits good impact resistance and damage tolerance for a wide range of applications. HexPly® 8552 is an amine cured, toughened epoxy resin system supplied with unidirectional or woven carbon or glass fibers. HexPly® 8552 was developed as a controlled flow system to operate in environments up to 121ºC (250ºF).

3501-6 is an amine cured epoxy resin system supplied with unidirectional or woven carbon or glass fibers. Typical reinforcement is continuous AS4 carbon filaments. 3501-6 was developed to operate in a temperature environment of up to 350°F (177°C). AS4/3501-6 is recommended for general purpose structural applications.

HexTow® AS4 carbon fiber is a continuous, high strength, high strain, PAN based fiber available in 3,000 (3K), 6,000 (6K) and 12,000 (12K) filament count tows. This fiber has been surface treated and can be sized to improve its interlaminar shear properties, handling characteristics, and structural properties, and is suggested for use in weaving, prepregging, filament winding, braiding, and pultrusion. AS4-GP 3k (1%), AS4-GP 12k (0.9%), and AS4 12k carbon fibers have been qualified to NMS 818 Carbon Fiber Specification (NCAMP). This allows customers to call out an industry standard, aerospace grade carbon fiber without the need to write and maintain their own specification.

HiMax™ multiaxial reinforcements, or non-crimp fabrics (NCF), are made up of multiple plies of parallel fibers, each lying in a different orientation or axis that allows customers to process multiple layers of unidirectional fibers in a single fabric.

HexPly® M65 is a bismaleimide resin that cures via an addition reaction in a toughened two-phase thermoset matrix with no condensation by-products. HexPly® M65 is a controlled bimaleimide resin system designed for alternative processing capabilities such as co-curing over honeycomb core, compression molding, as well as standard autoclave processing. HexPly® M65 has improved tack levels and performs well for fiber placement applications.
