Reichhold, who has enjoyed a long history of innovation, recently introduced a ground breaking technology based on its proprietary vinyl hybrid resin chemistry for advanced composite applications. The products include ADVALITE™ VINYL HYBRIDS liquid and ADVALITE™ VINYL HYBRIDS hot melt prepreg resins. The hot melt resins are monomer free and the liquid resins are styrene free and typically do not contain reactive diluents.
According to Alberto Piccinotti, Vice President Sales and Technology Europe, “Reichhold’s ADVALITE™ VINYL HYBRIDS resin technology is providing significant value by helping customers in the automotive and aerospace industries to generate solutions requiring performance and cost advantages over conventional epoxy solutions. The ADVALITE™ VINYL HYBRIDS technology is experiencing strong demand because it offers superior performance in hot/wet Tg, prepreg out life, cure rate, low exotherm and overall total cost.”
