ARALDITE® EPN 1179

ARALDITE® EPN 1179 contain more than two epoxy groups per molecule and can be described as multifunctional epoxy resins. Due to the increased epoxy functionality, EPN resins provide a high cross-link density when properly cured. Systems based on ARALDITE® EPN 1179 possess better chemical and high-temperature resistance than those based on standard bisphenol A epoxy resins.

Chemical Family: Phenol & Cresol Epoxy Resins (Novolac)
