Superior Performance for Next-Generation Materials

Proxima thermosets are designed to deliver the performance characteristics that companies need to address their advanced material needs.

  • Exceptional Toughness. High impact strength and resistance to crack propagation for long lasting parts with predictable life cycles.
  • Lightweight. Densities near 1 g/cm3 are 10-15% lighter than comparable thermoset resins.
  • Excellent Hot/Wet Properties. Extremely low water absorption of polyolefins combined with the thermal stability of thermosets.
  • Low Carbon Footprint. Cradle-to-gate emissions 47% lower than standard epoxy resins.
  • Low Viscosity Resins. Quick molding of complex shapes, high filler loadings, and low void content.

Compatibility with Standard Processing Techniques

Proxima resins are two-part liquid thermosetting systems specially designed to have a low viscosity for fast and easy mold fill or infusion. As a result, Proxima resins can be processed by most standard thermoset processing techniques into today’s manufacturing processes.

Flexible Property Range

The Proxima resin platform delivers a broad range of formulations, from rigid structural polymers to flexible soft materials, and anything in between.
