78Advanced Materials
Araldite® MT 35600
Description Bisphenol-A benzoxazine resin
Typical characteristics Aspect: yellowish solid
Melting point: 58 - 70°C
Viscosity at 125°C: 50 – 500 mPa.s
Volatile content: < 1%
Main features Di-functional thermosetting molecule
Reacts at high temperature through addition reaction, without gas release and with “near-zero” shrinkage
Creates on curing a phenolic-type network, showing very low moisture absorption
High glass transition temperature and high modulus network
Compatible with various other chemistries including epoxies, bis-maleimides, phenolics…
Applications and benefits High stability on storage at room temperature
Provides matrices with higher modulus than epoxy resins, with equivalent glass transition temperature, lower watersensitivity, and better flame resistance
Proposed for advanced composites, structural adhesives, laminates for printed wiring boards, high performancecoatings, encapsulating and molding compounds
