Araldite® MY 740 / Aradur® HY 906 / Accelerator DY 070 is a hot-curing, low-viscosity impregnating epoxy resin system designed for electrical insulation. It combines good mechanical and dielectric properties with excellent aging resistance. The system is based on:
Araldite® MY 740 (epoxy resin, 100 pbw)
Aradur® HY 906 (hardener, 95 pbw)
Accelerator DY 070 (1.2 pbw).
It is solvent-free, moisture-sensitive (especially HY 906), and requires controlled storage.
Manufacture of electrical laminates (tubes, rods, laminates).
Impregnation of high-voltage bushings and coils.
Processing methods:
Filament winding
Pultrusion
Wet laminating
Trickle impregnation
