Hypro 1300X13NA CTBN
Hypro 1300X13NA 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.
Hypro 1300X13NA CTBN and 1300X13CL CTBN are carboxyl terminated butadiene-acrylonitrile copolymers. These products are specific versions of standard 1300X13 CTBN designed to accommodate the electronics industry. As such X13NA was developed to minimize sodium content and X13CL was further developed to minimize chlorides content.
Applications for Hypro 1300X13NA CTBN
- Film and paste adhesives (structural and semi-structural applications)
- Coatings (solution, powder, water-borne)
- Composites
- Polymeric intermediate for epoxies, vinyl esters, epoxy acrylates, and phenolics
- End uses include aerospace, automotive, electrical/electronics, industrial, marine, and construction applications
