Kane Ace™ MXLiquid Epoxy Toughener
Benefits New Grade MX-170 for Composites
Liquid Epoxy Toughener based on Core-Shell Rubber Technology
Kane AceTM MX is a concentrate of core shell rubber (CSR) toughening agent in liquid epoxy resin.
The CSR remains uniformly dispersed under normal handling, formulating and curing conditions.
Fracture toughness Extra advantages of MX-170:Lap shear / T-peel strength Maintenance of flexural modulusFatigue resistance More transparent than conventional gradesNo Tg depression Consistent morphology Wide cure window
100nm particles
Core: Rubber
Shell: Co-polymer compatible with epoxy

Dispersion StabilityCSR dispersion is very stable even in di�erent cure conditions. Bisphenol-A epoxy cure in various conditions:
Amine Cure, 200°C Amine Cure, 60°C Phenolic Cure, 190°C(CSR 5%) (CSR 15%) (CSR 3%)
Toughness and Tg T-peel strengthFracture toughness is remarkably improved T-peel strength is increased without reduction of Tg. with CSR content.
