HexFlow® RTM6-2 is a two component resin designed for resin transfer moulding (RTM) and infusion processes and to fulfil the requirements of the aerospace industry. This system is designed for ease of transportation by road, air and sea.
HexFlow® RTM6-2 operates at service temperatures from -60°C up to 120°C (-75°F up to 248°F). At room temperature, after appropriate mixing, it is a brown translucent paste but its viscosity decreases quickly by increasing the resin temperature.
Advantages
Transportable version of standard qualified HexFlow® RTM6
Suitable for storage at +5°C or lower temperatures
Same formulation as standard HexFlow® RTM6 after appropriate mixing
High glass transition temperature
Excellent hot/wet properties
Easy to process (low injection pressure)
Long injection window ≥ 150 min at recommended injection temperature
Low moisture absorption
Short, simple cure cycles
Availability
HexFlow® RTM6-2 resin is available in kit form for part A and part B and in drums of up to 200 kg per component. HexFlow® RTM 6-2 resin is also available with a wide range of Injectex®, HexForce® and multiaxials fabrics (carbon, glass, aramid, hybrid).
