CYCOM® 5216

CYCOM® 5216 is a 200 - 250°F (93 - 121°C) curing, modified epoxy resin. Service temperature range is -67 to 180°F (-55 to 82°C). This prepreg is manufactured by hot melt processing and is virtually solvent- free.

All three fiber materials - carbon, aramid and glass - are available in unidirectional, woven and, on special order, roving forms. Typical applications include rotorblade spars and skins.

Carbon fiber reinforced CYCOM 5216 is a good candidate for aircraft secondary structure, commercial aircraft and aerospace products. Aramid reinforced CYCOM 5216 currently has application in helicopter structure, rotorblades and high impact resistant laminates. Glass fiber reinforced CYCOM 5216 is used in military and commercial helicopter blades and structures and is extensively used for engine nacelles.
