SKYBOND is a varnish that is composed of aromatic polyimides, which are one of the most thermally stable organic materials. The products originally developed by Monsanto(USA) are polymide precursors which, when properly cured, yield composites and adhesives with the highest thermal stability of any commercially available resin system. In April 1996, I.S.T acquired the right of manufacture and sales of the varnish. After acquiring SKYBOND, it was manufactured at our I.S.T factory on the premises of Solutia's Indian Orchard plant in Massachusetts. In 2014 we moved SKYBOND® plant to I.S.T New Jersey factory (inside DuPont) and now we are manufacturing SKYBOND in there. Polyimide prepreg or honeycomb composite materials can be made combining SKYBOND with glass, carbon, or aramid fibers, that have superb thermal-resistance and flexibility. In addition the varnish is used as a thermal-resistant adhesive material or sealing agent.
