Featured Product : HexPly® M77

HexPly® M77 rapid curing resin system
To assist manufacturers of sports equipment and other industries in their search for more efficient composite solutions that permit production rates to increase - without affecting investment and labor costs - Hexcel has developed a new epoxy resin system able to break the psychological barrier of the 5 minute cure cycle. 

Curing in only 2 minutes at 300°F/150°C, HexPly® M77 brings significant advantages to the market especially as this reactive system also has a long shelf life of 6 weeks at 23°C.  Other features such as a Tg of 120°C/250°F and good adhesive properties (eg. when bonding to aluminum) make HexPly® M77 highly suitable for large volume production as experienced in the ski industry and automotive components manufacture.  Being aware that we need to deliver performance without expense to the environment, HexPly® M77 is fully compliant with REACH regulations. Based on HexPly® M77 resin system, Hexcel has launched a range of prepregs with glass or carbon reinforcements in multiaxial form - as well as woven fabrics and UD tapes.
