ARALDITE®

A Huntsman materials brand covering structural adhesives and specialty epoxy and thermoset resin technologies used across industrial, electrical, transportation and composite applications.

ARATHANE®

Epoxy and polyurethane systems used for encapsulation, potting, impregnation and insulation of electronic and electrical components, including applications requiring flexible material behavior.

EPIBOND®

Structural and specialty adhesive systems for demanding joining applications involving metals, plastics and composite structures, with significant use in aerospace and transportation assemblies.

EPOCAST®

Huntsman aerospace epoxy syntactics, edge fillers and void fillers used in honeycomb and composite structures for applications such as insert potting, edge reinforcement and structural void filling.

REN®

A Huntsman family of composite and tooling materials covering resin, gel, infusion and processing technologies for industrial composite manufacture, moldmaking and tooling applications.

Structural Adhesives

Huntsman's structural adhesive portfolio includes epoxy, acrylic or methacrylate, and polyurethane technologies for joining metals, composites, plastics and other engineered substrates. Different adhesive families address different combinations of stiffness, flexibility, gap filling, cure speed, surface preparation and environmental exposure. Material selection should therefore be based on the exact substrates, joint geometry, production process, cure conditions and expected service environment.

Potting, Encapsulation and Electrical Insulation Materials

Huntsman offers epoxy and polyurethane resin systems for potting, casting, encapsulation, impregnation and electrical insulation applications. These materials are used around electronic components and electrical equipment including transformers, motors, coils, sensors, control devices and power electronics. Appropriate material selection depends on processing method, viscosity and flow requirements, component sensitivity, cure conditions, electrical insulation needs, thermal behavior and expected environmental exposure.

Composite Materials and Resin Systems

Huntsman's Advanced Materials portfolio includes resin systems and thermoset technologies for industrial and high-performance composite manufacturing. Supported processes include laminating, wet lay-up, infusion, resin transfer molding, filament winding, pultrusion and other pressure-assisted methods, depending on the resin system. Selection should reflect reinforcement type, part geometry, process temperature, viscosity and working-time requirements, cure strategy, production volume and the performance required from the finished composite.

Tooling and Moldmaking Materials

Huntsman maintains epoxy, polyurethane and related resin technologies for moldmaking, tooling, fixtures, prototypes and composite-tool construction. Current REN-branded materials include resin, gel, infusion and rapid-processing technologies that can be matched to different mold geometries and manufacturing methods. Selection should consider the master or mold material, required surface finish, cure and demolding conditions, tool operating temperature, dimensional requirements and the intended production process.
