Applications:
Adhesive Epoxies
CPD and Polytek Adhesive Epoxy Systems demonstrate a broad range of adherence to various materials, encompassing metals, composites, plastics, rubber, foams, ceramics, and wood. They possess substantial tensile strength, bond strength, high-temperature durability, and superior chemical resistance. Incorporating CPD or Polytek structural epoxy adhesives in your application can significantly enhance performance compared to conventional fastening methods.
Bio-Based Epoxies
By using our bio-based resin, you can produce durable composite parts while also making a positive impact on the environment. Traditional epoxy products are derived from crude oil, while our bio based products are derived from agricultural by-products. Performance remains a paramount objective for any CPD product. Therefore, we've ensured that our formulations meet your high manufacturing standards.
Compression / Press Molding Epoxies
CPD Epoxy Resin Systems are widely recognized for their superior mechanical properties, impressive heat resistance, and remarkable dimensional stability, making them a preferred choice in compression molding. Upon curing, your epoxy parts display exceptional strength and robustness, establishing their suitability for applications demanding sturdy molded components including, but not limited to, aerospace components, sports equipment, electrical insulation, and structural composites.
Surface Coat Epoxies
CPD Coating Epoxy Systems are widely recognized as the preferred solution in a multitude of industrial applications due to their superior protective characteristics. These properties, which include defense against abrasion, turbulence, oxidation, corrosion, temperature fluctuations, fire, moisture, impact, vibration, shock, and compression, make CPD epoxies an ideal choice. Industries such as aerospace, automotive, marine, and sporting equipment frequently experience such conditions, thereby favoring the usage of CPD epoxy systems for coating applications.
Infusion / Injection / Resin Transfer Molding Epoxies
CPD Infusion Epoxy Systems produce lightweight, high-strength composite parts with superior mechanical properties, resistance to corrosion, and dimensional stability. They have low viscosity and high reactivity and are ideal for impregnating reinforcing fibers such as carbon fiber or fiberglass when utilizing vacuum infusion processes. CPD epoxy infusion resins are employed in the aerospace, automotive, marine, wind energy, and sporting goods industries who rely heavily on lightweight, durable composite materials to meet their stringent requirements.
Laminating / Wet-Layup Epoxies
CPD and Polytek Laminating Epoxy Systems are engineered to accommodate many wet-layup applications. These epoxy systems are instrumental in crafting lightweight, robust composite structures capable of enduring sustained stress, even under the most severe conditions. Their bonding capacity extends to a diverse range of materials and reinforcing fabrics, demonstrating exceptional resistance to moisture, heat, and fatigue. CPD and Polytek Laminating epoxies exhibit superb physical properties at room temperature with the option to post-cure to increase performance.
