CYCOM® 5320-1 is a toughened epoxy resin prepreg system designed for out-of-autoclave manufacturing of primary structural applications. Because of its lower temperature curing capability, it is also suitable for prototyping where low cost tooling or vacuum-bag-only curing is required. CYCOM® 5320-1 handles like standard prepreg, yet can be vacuum bag cured to produce autoclave quality parts having very low porosity. It offers mechanical properties equivalent to other 350°F (177°C) autoclave-cured toughened epoxy prepreg systems after a 350°F (177°C) freestanding postcure.

Ideally suited to aerospace applications CYCOM® 97714A resin is a 250°F (121°C) curing epoxy resin with good 200°F (93°C) dry and 160°F (71°C) wet service capability. CYCOM® 97714A is based on the same chemistry as CYCOM® 7714A. CYCOM® 97714A has improved flatwise tension strength when compared to similar materials with no detriment to other mechanical properties when autoclave processed. The prepreg can also be press molded and vacuum bag processed and is co-curable with a number of other resin systems, providing design flexibility with respect to the use of hybrid lay-ups. The standard cure is two hours at 250°F (121°C). No post cure is required for 160°F (71°C) wet service capability. CYCOM® 97714A is impregnated via solution techniques. Features and Benefits: 250°F (121°C) Cure Flame Retardant Laminate and sandwich panel usage Used as a self-adhesive system Meets NASA outgassing requirements Used as self adhesive system 200°F (93°C) dry service temperature 160°F (71°C) wet service temperature Autoclave press mold, or vacuum bag processed Shelf Life 6 months at 0°F (-18°C) Handling Life 10 days at 75°F (24°C) Co-cureable with CYCOM® 7701, CYCOM® 7714 and CYCOM® 7714A systems
