Paris, France -- Cytec Industries Inc. (NYSE: CYT) is introducing BR 252 bonding primer at JEC Europe 2013 on March 12 - 14 at the Porte de Versailles Exhibition Center. BR 252 is a one-part, corrosion-inhibiting, modified-epoxy bonding primer. The product is specifically formulated to meet emerging environmental, health and safety standards for aerospace manufacturing materials. It provides excellent adhesion and corrosion protection.

BR 252 bonding primer is a water-based formulation that meets OSHA and REACH emissions regulations for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). It provides mechanical properties equal to that of solvent-based primer systems. It is compatible with most 121°C - 177°C curing adhesives and has a wide curing window and long out time. BR 252 is insensitive to varying spray-booth conditions. This product enables manufacturers to realize greater processing flexibility.
