PETI-330

PETI-330 New Polyimide Resin
Breakthrough Resin Technology for High Temperature Composite Fabrication by RTM
  · PETI-330 is a new high temperature resin for Resin Transfer Molding
  · Significant improvements in both high and low temperature performance compared with traditional materials such as epoxies or bismaleimides.
  · Superior combination of processability and mechanical properties compared with existing polyimides such as PMR-15.
(Licensed From the NASA Under US Patent 6,359,107)

Characteristics
  · Major advancement in materials technology combining unprecedented processing characteristics with long term (1,000 hours) performance at 300
  · The combination of easy processing for composite fabrication combined with high temperature performance and toughness is unprecedented
  · Offers low (<10 Pa-sec, 288) and stable melt viscosity highly suited to RTM process
  · Simple and efficient 1 hour full cure process
  · High glass transition temperature 330 / 626
  · Solvent free (no volatiles)
  · Non toxic

Benefits
  · Superior thermal performance to BMIs
  · Specifically designed for Aerospace applications
  · Enables cost effective and affordable fabrication of high temperature composite structures for advanced aerospace applications
  · Extending the range of possible applications
  · Simplified cure process is highly suitable for mass production requirements
  · Reduced fabrication time for components and assemblies
  · Reduced mass & weight for high temperature structural applications (i.e. replace metallic parts and assemblies)
  · Enables a more cost effective alternative to complex part ssembly
