Product Data Sheet Revised 12/21/06
Description

L-501 is a 250°F (121°C) curing, high peel strength, flame retardant, epoxy prepreg available on fiberglass fabrics such as 7781 style or other styles as requested. L-501 is intended to be used as a single ply or multiple ply skin for aramid/phenolic honeycomb, aluminum honeycomb or PVC foam core sandwich panels.

Advantages of L-501
  • No adhesive is required because of the high peel strength and high toughness of the L-501 resin matrix. L-501 can be bonded directly to a variety of core materials.
  • Easy processing is another major advantage. L-501 can be cured with vacuum bag, press or autoclave type cures from 90 minutes at 235°F (113°C) or in just 40 minutes at 275°F (135°C) with contact pressure (235°F (113°C) cure temperatures are recommended for urethane or PVC core).
  • L-501 is also an excellent prepreg when high impact strength and high toughness are required.
