Evopreg® EPT110
- Chemical Family
- Epoxy & Epoxy Derivatives
Evopreg® EPT110 tooling prepregs are based on a low temperature curing, toughened epoxy resin system, formulated specifically for high temperature performance, ease of lay-up and excellent surface finish. The prepregs can be supplied with a range of reinforcement fibers and fabric constructions, including carbon, glass and ampliTex™ flax, and they are best consolidated in an autoclave.

- Storage
The material must be stored in a freezer at -18°C and sealed in a polythene bag. To protect the material, we recommend storing it in its original box with the end supports. To avoid moisture condensation, allow the material to defrost fully and reach room temperature before opening the polythene bag. Typical thaw time for full roll is 4-6 hours. Keep the material sealed in the polythene bag when not in use to prevent moisture absorption. The cable tie that seals the polythene bag is reusable. Out-life at room temperature is 5 days. Storage life at -18°C is 12 months.

- Health and Safety
Please refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) before use. This material contains epoxy resin andfibres which can cause irritation to skin and eyes and allergic reactions. Wear appropriate PPE including overalls and impervious gloves, and ensure adequate ventilation. Evopreg® EPT110 prepregs contain a highly reactive epoxy resin formulation which can undergo severe exothermic reactions. Particular care must be taken when curing thick laminates. Do not exceed recommended ramp rates.
