L&L Products has launched a new technology line called T-Link, an advanced engineering thermoplastic resin with excellent adhesive properties for ultimate performance and processability that help customers go beyond limits.
“Some manufacturers use a lot of two-part epoxy adhesives that take many hours to cure and have long start-up and layup times. Here, we can successfully replace these often messy, two-part resin systems with L&L-developed one-component products that can be co-cured with their composite structure for reduced cycle times. Our knowledge and technology enable a faster, more cost-efficient process and often a product performance improvement,” said Brandon Madaus, Material Development Technical Specialist at L&L Products.
The film has been on the market since 2014 and has been an ideal matrix resin solution for several composite applications in the aerospace, armour, and sporting goods industries.
“Because of its compatibility with epoxy resin systems, T-Link is designed to enhance composite properties and impart high ductility, resulting in improved fracture toughness, and impact resistance,” said Jason Walker, Senior Product Development Engineer at L&L Products.
