Product catalog summary
Introduction
Smartcure™ is an epoxy prepreg designed for high-volume press moulding applications, particularly in automotive component production. It offers a rapid 5-minute cure time at 150°C, enabling efficient manufacturing of net shape components with good surface finish.

Product Information
Smartcure™ is available in various formats, including AFP tape. It features low tack rating and specific resin and fibre content, with detailed specifications provided for different product variants.

Processing Information
The prepreg can be cured at temperatures above 130°C, with specific cure times and gelation times provided. Optimal press cycle times depend on part and mould shape.

Transport & Storage
Smartcure™ should be stored sealed and out of direct sunlight, preferably in a freezer to extend its usable life. Storage guidelines at different temperatures are provided to maintain handling characteristics.

Health and Safety
Users are advised to refer to the product SDS for specific health and safety information.

Minimum Cure Time & Temperature
Details on press moulding conditions, including cure temperature, dwell time, and pressure, are provided. The material's glass transition temperature is also specified.

LAMINATE PROPERTIES
Data is based on mechanical testing of a single batch, with properties such as tensile strength, modulus, and fire resistance detailed for different fibre types.

Notice
Gurit provides advice in good faith but recommends customers conduct their own testing to ensure suitability for specific applications. Specifications and prices are subject to change without notice.

Technical Contact Information
Contact details for technical support and chemical emergencies are provided, including phone numbers and email addresses for different regions.
