BMI SYSTEMS
High-performance duroplasts with thermally curable groups can be used to manufacture compound materials, prepregs, laminates, and grinding discs.
After thermal curing, these duroplastic resin systems show excellent thermo-oxidative and mechanical properties.
Homide 250
CAS-No. 26140-67-0
Homide 250
Homide 250 is a prepolymer bismaleimide resin system with a low softening range of 90-125°C supplied in powder form. The resin can be cured thermally to create a cross-linked thermoset with excellent thermal and mechanical resistance. Homide 250 can be processed in powder form or dissolved in an organic solvent, such as dimethylformamide or N-methylpyrrolidone, up to a concentration of 45% for the production of composite materials.

Homide 400L
Homide 400L
Homide 400L is a duroplastic resin system offered in the form of a 60 – 70% solution in methylethylketone. Due to the pre-set viscosity and the resin content, this resin solution is suitable for impregnating glass fabric and fibre glass. Homide 400L is a single-component resin system. After thermal curing, this product becomes a finished polymer with a high glass temperature and outstanding long-term stability, as well as good mechanical and electrical properties. Thermal curing can be accelerated by adding catalysts such as 2-phenylimidazole.
Properties:
Applications:
- Exact concentration with defined resin content for impregnating processes.
- Soluble in organic solvents with a low boiling point, such as acetone and methylethylketone, at room temperature
- The 60 – 70% resin solution can be diluted with acetone
- Curing at a temperature of 200-250°C
- DDM-free resin system
- The resin solution remains stable during storage at room temperature for several months.
- PCBs
- Prepregs and laminates
- Copper-clad laminates
- Coatings
