Toray MicroPly™ TCF4001
- Chemical Family
- Cyanate Esters
Toray Toray MicroPly™ TCF4001 cyanate ester syntactic foam is unique in the industry due to its combination of low density and good structural properties. The material does not require pressure during cure to achieve its mechanical properties, and can be machined to shape if required. Toray MicroPly™ TCF4001 can be packed into tooling cavities. 177°C (350°F) Cure, Cyanate Ester Syntactic Foam.
