SE 84LV is an exceptionally versatile hot-melt, epoxy prepreg. It can be cured at temperatures as low as 80°C, or it can be used for faster moulding of components at 120°C. This is achieved with an extremely good out-life of up to 8 weeks  at 18-22°C. It is a toughened system, and offers excellent mechanical properties on a wide variety of reinforcing fabrics and fibres. 
SE 84LV is commonly used in vacuum bagging, press-moulding, autoclave and other pressure moulding processes. SE 84LV is a low viscosity system used with heavy fibre weights where low-flow processing conditions (vacuum bag pressure and minimum cure temperature), are likely to be used. With its high compressive strength it is widely used in large heavily loaded components, such as yacht hulls, and spars. 
TYPICAL APPLICATIONSSE 84LV has  been  selected  for  use  by  various America’s Cup syndicates and boats racing in the Volvo Ocean Race. SE 84LV is widely used in sandwich structures with honeycomb, foam and balsa cores, primarily with the toughened SA 80 Adhesive Film.

The SE 85 series are toughened hot-melt, epoxy prepregs that offer an extremely good balance of mechanical properties. They are ideal for structural components where improved impact performance and resistance to resin microcracking is desired. SE 85 can be cured at 80°C, yet retains an outlife of up to 56 days at 23°C. With its 3/4 hour cure at 120°C, it is also suitable for the quick manufacture of parts, and is also used in the development of trial components.
SE 85 has high flow characteristics (SE 85GT medium flow) , so that heavy reinforcements can be easily wet out, and good consolidation can be achieved in very thick (>25mm) laminates, under just vacuum bag pressures. Its flow behaviour also means that it can produce excellent surface finishes when used in pressure-moulded components. 
SE 85BL & SE 85GTBL is a black pigmented variant, often used in carbon fabrics to provide an excellent deep black gloss finish on the outer surface of carbon components such as yacht spars and race car parts.

QUICK REPAIR SYSTEM
Handipack is a multi-purpose epoxy, supplied only in a small pack. It is designed for quick repair work and small scale construction jobs. The system is extremely reactive with a pot-life of just 8 minutes at 20°C. It is therefore best suited to small tasks, and should not be applied in thicknesses exceeding 3mm.         
LAMINATING
The medium to low viscosity of the material enables it to be used for small laminating tasks, using lightweight glass fabrics, such as those from the reinforcements range. The system’s good clarity makes it a good sheathing matrix system.         
COATING
Used as a coating, it cures rapidly at ambient temperatures to form a tough, clear film, with good moisture resistance. If the coating is to remain unpainted, the cured material should be overcoated with any good two pack polyurethane, since an unprotected epoxy coating will gradually yellow in sunlight.    By using Gurit's range of filler powders, a Handipack resin and hardener mix can be turned into a very effective adhesive or filling compound.         
AVAILABILITY 
Handipack is available only in one size (250ml resin and 125ml hardener), with resin and hardener components each supplied with a dedicated dispensing pump that attaches to the container.

SparPreg™ was developed to benefit the lay-up of thick UD sections, such as wind turbine blade spars. The material can produce thick laminates of exceptional quality with low void content, without the need for an intermediary debulking process or additional dry fabric reinforcement to aid air removal. The net result enables blade manufacturers to eliminate production steps and redundant materials and increase capacity.
SparPreg™ has been specially formulated to achieve the outstanding in-cure and mechanical performance of the SE 91 prepreg and ST 93 SPRINT™ resin systems. SparPreg™ can be cured at temperatures as low as 85°C / 185°F, but can also be used for the rapid manufacture of components at 120°C / 250°F.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
SparPreg™ is an advanced UD prepreg, developed to enable the economic manufacture of unidirectional spar caps for more demanding blade designs, ideal for use in conjunction with other Gurit products. SparPreg™ is also available with Airstream™ Coating Technology – to eliminate air conditioning  without compromise laminate quality.

MAIN PRODUCT FEATURES¬ Excellent handling and drapability up to 35°C / 95°F¬ Extremely low void content in any thickness without the need for cold lay-up or de-bulking¬ Low exotherm resin matrix enabling low Tg infusion grade tooling¬ Suitable for automated lay-up                     Gurit SparPreg™ Spar Solution is now available in carbon and glass with Airstream™ coating technology. SparPreg™ featuring Airstream™ coating technology is a specialised prepreg, developed to enable the economic manufacture of UD spar caps for most demanding composite structure designs.
Conventional prepregs are processed using vacuum bag technology to remove the air between the plies prior to consolidation and cure. However, as laminate thickness increases it is difficult to maintain high quality, low void content laminates without the use of multiple de-bulking steps under controlled temperature conditions and/or the use of high pressure autoclaves to consolidate the plies. Due to the size of spar caps and the manufacturing cost targets it is not always feasible to use multiple process steps, expensive capital equipment, or invest in a tightly temperature controlled environment. 
TYPICAL APPLICATIONSAirstream™ coating technology has been developed to enable the manufacture of high quality large structures for the wind energy and other markets with minimal infrastructure and labour investment.
LONG-LIFE RESIN TECHNOLOGYSparPreg™ with Airstream™ coating technology is now available with Long-Life Resin Technology, which uses new latent curing materials that provide a much longer shelf-life at 21°C and 2 months at 35°C.

The unique formulation ensures that no dicy white-wash or spots are evident in the cured resin, reducing scrap rate by up to 20%. It is ideal for manufacturing high visual quality components using autoclave and press moulding. It can be cured at temperatures as low as 80°C, or it can be used for faster moulding of components at 120°C. Even faster cures are achievable using press moulding technologies at temperatures up to 150°C. This is achieved whilst maintaining good out-life of up to 3 weeks at 21°C. It is a toughened system, and offers excellent mechanical properties on a wide variety of reinforcing fabrics and fibres.
ROBUST DEVELOPMENT VALIDATIONDuring the development of SC 110, extensive beta testing has been conducted to manufacture the most challenging cosmetic components in order to demonstrate the robustness of the unique resin formulation. Tight curvature, resin rich seams and numerous components have been produced through autoclave and press moulding processes without any sign of white wash or spots.

      SE 300 / PN 901 is an ideal prepreg resin for high temperature composite applications, as it combines the ease of processing and handling convenience of epoxy resins, high temperature stability of polyimides, and flame and fire resistance of phenolics. 
A 120°C cure for 75 minutes combined with a post-cure, enables SE 300 / PN 901 to generate a Tg in excess of 300°C, making SE 300 / PN 901 ideal for applications in composite structures, which are exposed to very high temperatures for short durations. The flame and smoke characteristics of SE 300 / PN 901 composites show that this resin possesses superior flame retardant properties and holds a wide range of aerospace grade FST (Fire/Smoke/Toxicity) standards.

Ampreg F230-1 is a foaming epoxy system designed for the manufacture of marine foils. It is a high strength and toughness expanding foam and has an expansion rate of up to 4 times the initial mixed volume. 
Ampreg F230-1 has been formulated to use the Ampreg 21 range of hardeners. The compatibility of the Ampreg F230-1 and Ampreg 21 ensures a high strength bond is achieved between the foil skins and the expanded epoxy foam.
Compared to competitive products, which typically only have 1 or 2 hardeners, the Ampreg F230-1 is available with a range of hardeners from fast to extraslow. This allows the speed of the system to be tailored to the size of the cavity, which reduces exotherm and shrinkage, leading to higher quality parts.
Ampreg F230-1 combined with Ampreg 21 is the ideal package of materials for the manufacture of high quality marine foils.

CR 3400 is an in-mould epoxy surfacing system for epoxy laminates, and is designed to be used as the base for the subsequent application of a paint scheme.
