Hypro 1300X13F CTBN
Hypro 1300X13F CTBN: Hypro® Reactive Liquid Polymers (RLP) are 100% solids liquid rubbers used to improve the toughness, flexibility, adhesion, and impact resistance of thermoset resin systems including epoxies, vinyl esters, unsaturated polyesters, acrylics, and urethanes. These materials are a family of butadiene homopolymers and butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymers with functionality at the chain ends. Functional groups are carboxyl (COOH), amine (NH or NH2), methacrylate, or epoxy. The acrylonitrile content varies in these polymers from zero to 26% which directly affects the solubility and glass transition temperature (Tg) of the materials.
This product is a carboxyl terminated butadiene- acrylonitrile copolymer used predominately as a reactant with your base thermoset resin to gain product performance improvements. These resultant pre-reacts (adducts) can be incorporated at various levels to suit the needs of your specific formulation. Hypro 1300X13F CTBN is very similar to 1300X13 CTBN in its physical characteristics and performance and meets requirements for food contact applications as cited in 21 CFR 175.300 for resinous and polymeric coatings.
