Solvay CYCOM® 977-3 Epoxy - Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Tape
Categories:	Polymer; Thermoset; Carbon Fiber/Thermoset Composite; Epoxy; Epoxy/Carbon Fiber Composite
Material Notes:	CYCOM® 977-3 is a 350°F (177°C) curing resin. It is a toughened epoxy resin with 350°F (177°C) dry and 270°F (132°C) wet service capability. CYCOM 977-3 is formulated for autoclave or press molding and can be cured at 350°F (177°C) for six hours. Unidirectional tape and woven fabric impregnated with CYCOM 977-3 resin will retain tack for 21 days at 72°F (22°C). It has a long mechanical out life suitable for fabrication of large structures. Features & Benefits: 350°F (177°C) cure Available on fabric and tape 350°F (177°C) dry service temperature 270°F (132°C) wet service temperature Laminate and sandwich panel usage Autoclave or press mold processing Toughened epoxy using proprietary “cocontinuous”morphology Impact resistance Shelf life of 12 months at 0°F (-18°C), 21 days at 72°F (22°C) Applications: Aircraft primary and secondary structure Applications where impact resistance is critical Applications where hot/wet performance is crucial Mechanical property data for 977-3 epoxy Unidirectional Tape with IM7 12K Intermediate Modulus Carbon Fiber [40 msi (276 GPa)].
