| Product Data Sheet |
Revised 10/01/07 |
| Description |
|
L-603 is a polyimide resin coated on various fabrics or fibers to make a prepreg material suitable for high-temperature applications in the aerospace industry. This product can be used for engine compartment components requiring long-term exposure to high temperatures. The L-603 prepreg system is suitable for engine firewall applications where the designer is seeking burn-through resistance. |
| Advantages of L-603 |
- A relatively inexpensive material, L-603 allows the designer to build a heat-resistance structure that will perform over long term time periods required of today’s modern aircraft.
- L-603 may be cured in autoclave, press, or oven with relatively low pressure.
- The L-603 resin system creates a char when exposed to flame which keeps flame from penetrating substructures.
