FORTEGRA® 501 was designed to provide toughening benefits to epoxy systems, mainly used adhesives and composites. The epoxy functionality enables the acrylic toughener to react into the thermoset. The thermal properties can be maintained for epoxy systems that have been toughened by the incorporation of FORTEGRA® 501. A wide variety of curing agents is available to cure this resin at ambient conditions. Most frequently used curing agents are polyamines, polyamides and modified versions of these. Elevated temperature cure is necessary and post-cure required to develop full end properties if anhydride or catalytic curing agents are employed.
