CYCOM® 823 RTM is a 125°C (255°F) liquid epoxy resin suitable for resin infusion or RTM processes. Depending on customer preferences, it is available in one- or two-part formats. The one-part system is a final product ready to use without additional mixing.
CYCOM® 823 RTM’s viscosity is low enough at room temperature to allow injection without having to heat either the resin or the transfer pipework. When the resin is heated to the cure temperature its viscosity is further reduced, helping to ensure full wet-out of the reinforcing fibres.
