Toray RS-3
Toray RS-3 is a modified cyanate ester prepreg resin developed to provide a good balance between toughness and high temperature/wet performance. RS-3 has been evaluated and qualified in the areas of satellite, airframe/missile, and dielectric structures. RS-3 is also available in several modified formulations including: RS-3C, a controlled-flow vacuum-bag/oven-cure version; and RS-3M, an extremely low-flow autoclave version. 177°C (350°F) Service Toughened Cyanate Ester Resin
