Solvay FM® 10 Epoxy Syntactic Core
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoset; Epoxy
Material Notes:	Description: FM® 10 is a syntactic epoxy core material which is reinforced with hollow glass micro-balloons. FM 10 syntactic core is designed as a cost and/or weight saving alternative in the manufacture of thin [below 0.20 inches (5.1 mm) thick], stiffness critical composite panels. FM 10 syntactic core is compatible with nearly all commercially available 350°F (177°C) epoxy advanced composites. FM 10 will co-cure with these composites without the use of an adhesive film with. FM 10 is supplied with a non-woven Kevlar® mat (aromatic polyamide fiber) which improves handling characteristics in addition to increasing the material’s flexural strength. The product is slightly tacky for ease of handling. The product is supplied in sheet or roll form between two layers of release paper. Features & Benefits: 350°F (177°C) service temperature Replaces honeycomb core in lightweight panels 350°F (177°C) co-cure with most epoxy advanced composites Low density core Radar transparent Excellent strength-to-weight ratio Applications: Thin composite panels where weight, cost and/or stiffness are critical Information provided by Cytec, subsequently acquired by Solvay.
