Product Data Sheet Revised 12/21/06
Description

L-952 is an excellent high temperature modified epoxy prepreg which exhibits outstanding performance at temperatures up to 400°F (204°C). L-952 is ideally suited for applications on light weight advanced aircraft for fairings, inlet ducting, leading edges, control surfaces, pylons, and radomes. L-952 is moisture resistant and has excellent compatibility with other graphite/epoxy systems.

Advantages of L-952
  • L-952 has an excellent balance between toughness, high temperature strength and weatherability.
  • L-952 may be co-cured with many of today’s epoxy adhesive systems to form load transfer interfaces.
  • L-952 is also supplied on light weight fiberglass fabric for use as a surfacing ply for graphite/epoxy laminates and facesheets to improve their damage tolerance.
