jER™ YX8800

jER™ YX8800 is an anthracene-type epoxy resin that exhibits excellent flame retardancy, high thermostability, good abrasion, heat and water resistance, and electrical insulation, making it appropriate for electrical and electronic applications, carbon fiber–reinforced polymers (CFRP), and other applications. It is available in a solid yellow powder form for formulation ease.
