1. Product Overview

Araldite® LY 3598 combined with Aradur® 3498 is a warm-curing, nano-toughened epoxy laminating system. It provides high toughness, low viscosity for easy processing, and excellent performance in composite applications. Designed for resin transfer moulding (RTM) and vacuum infusion, the system delivers superior mechanical strength and fracture resistance, making it suitable for advanced composite manufacturing.


2. Applications

  • High-performance sports equipment

  • Industrial composites

  • Laminated composite structures requiring toughness and durability

  • Processing via RTM and vacuum infusion
