Kordsa CM 11

CM11 resin is Mid Tg and its prepregs are suitable for hot painting, hot gluing and cataphoresis processes. New resin system not only cures under 3 minutes at 150°C at press under isothermal curing conditions but also hot de-moldable and long out-life of two weeks at ambient temperature. These extreme conditions does not affect the visual Performance of prepreg system with CM11, capable of Class A Surface. Drapability is suitable for press molds and low to medium tack optimized for press curing.
