The material
How this grade works and where it fits — exact parameters are defined in the TDS.
Solid polysilazane resin for fibre prepregs, high-temperature adhesives and plastic modification masterbatches. Unlike the liquid grades in the range this is a thermoplastic solid: it softens rather than flows, which is what makes it spinnable and suitable for melt extrusion alongside thermoplastics. The softening point is set to order between 40 and 120 °C.
Choose this grade when the process needs a solid, meltable precursor rather than a liquid resin — fibre spinning, prepreg manufacture or compounding. It is not a coating and is not supplied in bottles.
Suitable for
Industrial applications within the TDS parameters
Metal, glass, ceramic and stone substrates — per grade
Professional application and curing processes
Not intended for
Consumer or DIY use — industrial B2B supply only
Conditions outside the parameters defined in the TDS
Food-contact or medical use unless explicitly confirmed
Applications
Recommended application areas for this grade, based on its TDS. Application fit is confirmed during technical review.
Production of continuous silicon nitride ceramic fibre. Matrix resin for carbon fibre, quartz fibre and glass fibre prepregs. High-temperature adhesive for ceramics, metals and plastics. Masterbatch for melt-extruded plastics.
