Technical Details & Test Data

Processing Data

ARALDITE® epoxy resins and ARADUR® HY 906 mixtures require heat cures. The system can be gelled at low temperatures (80 - 100°C) depending upon the ACCELERATOR. Prolonged curing at elevated temperatures produces products with exceptionally high heat deflection temperature. Varying the cure schedule can result in heat deflection temperature variations from 90 - 160°C.
