Bio-based Epoxy Systems - Good Adhesion to a Variety of Materials and Low Water Absorption

Allowing the ‘in situ’ production of a shaped low-density epoxy foam core, the two-part system with 37% bio-based carbon content offers good adhesion to a variety of materials and low water absorption. It is particularly suited to foam cored components with lightweight glass, carbon or natural fiber laminates, for example for sporting goods, paddles and surfboards with complex shaped cores.

Sicomin’s GreenPoxy® bio-based epoxy systems have created a wide following and are used in a variety of markets such as Marine Structures, Water and Winter Board Sports, Construction and Electric Vehicles.
