Maverick Corporation MVK-19

Chemical Family: Polyimides (PI)

Maverick Corporation MVK-19 is an ultra-high temperature polyimide resin with continuous service capability up to 371°C. MVK-19’s excellent thermal stability makes it suitable for use in some of the harshest applications for composite bearings and structures.MVK-19 does not contain the toxic diamine 4,4’-methylenedianiline (MDA) or any other carcinogenic or mutagenic component. Its chemistry makes MVK-19 most suitable to be processed by compression molding.MVK-19 was formulated and developed by Maverick, and it has been qualified for use in military and commercial jet engines since 1994. Maverick Molding Company manufactures MVK-19 molded parts in high-rate production at our Blue Ash facility. MVK-19 is available as a resin solution from Maverick Corporation.
