General Datasheet Good balance of mechanical properties Excellent laminate quality Extremely low void content Good tack Fast layup No debulk necessary between plies Variable cure temperature 85-125ºC (185-257ºF) Germanischer Lloyd Certified INTRODUCTION The patent-approved ST 95 Structural SPRINT™ is a moulding material that consists of two layers of carbon or glass reinforcement either side of a precast, precatalysed resin film. The material therefore has the appearance of dry reinforcement that has resin concealed at its centre. Carbon and Glass SPRINT™ are available in woven or unidirectional fabric skewed to ±45º angles in a range of weights and fabric formats with a light tack film on one side to aid mould placement. ST 95 is a toughened hot-melt, epoxy resin that offers an extremely good balance of mechanical properties. It has been formulated to maximise the outlife of SPRINT™ products at room temperature. It is ideal for structural components where improved impact performance and resistance to resin microcracking is desired. ST 95 has a flexible cure envelope from 12 hours at 85ºC (185ºF) to 1 hour at 120ºC (248ºF). This makes it suitable for use in regular part production as well as for the development of trial components. The material is highly drapeable and has been designed for simple vacuum bag processing. Structural SPRINT™ ST 95 can be used in the manufacture of a vast range of structural applications such as chassis, bulkheads, hulls and decks, for automotive and marine markets, as well as many other industrial applicati

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 1. The moulding surface must first be treated with a release agent. If a Surface Film is required, this should be applied directly to the tool face prior to the lay-up of the SPRINT™. Please refer to Processing Notes for application details. The required number of plies of SPRINT™ are then placed on to the tool face. A thermocouple may be inserted into the lay-up outside the net trim line. Dry glass tows should be inserted between plies of SPRINT™ to provide an air evacuation path out of the laminate. The second end of the tow should be made available for contact with the...
