INTRODUCTIONt
 
SE 200 is a high strength toughened epoxy system that has a flexible cure envelope ranging from 135°C (275°F) to 200°C
(392°F).
SE 200 has been developed to enable rapid part manufacture through a
number of composite processing methods. The minimum cure temperature
is 135°C (275°F) from which SE 200 develops a Tg and mechanical
properties associated with higher temperature curing systems. Higher
temperature cures in excess of 180°C (356°F) will achieve the best dry and
wet thermal performance.
Using the appropriate press moulding
technology it is possible to achieve a 15 minutes hot-in / hot-out cure at
195°C (383°F), making SE 200 suitable for the economic production of
automotive parts.
SE 200 structural prepreg can be used in the making of parts such as
structural lower tubs, bulkheads, front and rear scuttles, gearbox tunnels
and other structural components.
