| CYCOM® 950-1 modified epoxy resin is a 121°C (250°F) cure system with the performance of a 177°C (350°F) curing epoxy. CYCOM 950-1 prepreg is curable under vacuum-bag-only pressure conditions. CYCOM 950-1 is a controlled flow, net resin content material that offers significant advantages over wet lay-up systems for structural repairs. Advantages include favorable stress-strain characteristics, product quality and consistency, speed of lay-up and vastly improved health and safety characteristics. Features & Benefits: - Aerospace qualified
- Low outgassing. Approved for space flight
- Controlled flow material
- Improved toughness compared with first- and second-generation structural epoxies
- Dry service temperature of 150°C (300°F) when cured at 135°C (275°F)
- Mechanical properties of a 177°C (350°F) curing material when cured at 135°C (275°F)
- Mechanical properties to 104°C (220°F) hot/wet
- Oven/vacuum bag cure capability as well as autoclave positive pressure cure
- Efficient for structural repair
- Conventional drying, lay-up, vacuum bagging and localized low-level heating is all that is required for most applications
- Shop life of 8 weeks at ambient conditions
- Suitable for laminate and sandwich panel usage
- Co-curable with various aerospace qualified adhesive materials
Suggested Applications: - Helicopter fuselage and rotor components
- Wing structures
- Field repairs and permanent repairs
- Space flight applications
