Composite Materials
ADHESIVEs & SEALANTS
Fiber-reinforced composites have become a key technology of the 21st century as they enable strong, but lightweight construction in many different areas of modern life.
It's not only transportation applications like aerospace, automotive, railway, yacht- or shipbuilding that are dependent on composites components to be more fuel-efficient and long-lasting. But also wind energy installations, crude oil pipes for offshore platforms, energy recovery flywheels, compressurized gas tanks and many other applications in the energy market would be impossible without fiber reinforced composites. From construction materials to sports equipment, machine parts and protective equipment like helmets – fiber-reinforced composites are everywhere.
We improve the performance and help to reduce the manufacturing costs of high quality composites by using thermosetting resin systems. Silica nanoparticles in epoxy resins enhance the mechanical properties and improve fatigue performance significantly. Tougheners based on reactive liquid rubbers or core shell elastomers, tackifiers for prepregs and process additives help to complete our comprehensive product portfolio.

Products for efficiency and performance of thermosetting matrices
Depending on the application and desired modification, different products can be used for improving the performance of thermosetting resins and how composites are made thereby improving the overall processability of thermosets and textiles.
