  1. Kaneka Core-Shell Toughening Systems for Thermosetting Resins Douglas J. Sober Kaneka Texas Corp 2 Northpoint Drive Suite 200 Houston, TX 77060 713-503-1558 dsober@kanekatexas.com

  2. What is Core-Shell Rubber (CSR) ? Co-Polymer I designedfor impact resistance.This is the core. Co-Polymer II designedto be compatible withthermosetting resin. This is the shell. 2-Layer CSR

  3. What is Core-Shell Rubber (CSR) ? 2-Layer CSR 100nm

  4. How does CSR toughen resins? • Core polymer cavitates on impact dissipating energy . • Small, evenly dispersed particles act as a crack terminator.

  5. Applications of CSR? • Thermosplastic resins systems. • Thermosetting resins systems for: • - Adhesives. • - Composites. • - Potting Compounds & Encapsulants • - Coatings • - Copper-Clad Laminates

  6. Core Shell Rubber Advantages: • Outstanding Toughness Improvement: • - Fracture Toughness • - T-Peel Strength • - Lap-Shear Strength • No Depression of Tg. • Wide Cure Window. • Consistent Morphology. • Low Ionic and Surfactant Content. • Extremely Stable.

  7. What is Kane Ace MX: Kane Ace MX are concentrates comprised typically of 25% by weight of CSR dispersed in various thermosetting resins. The liquids are easily poured after heating and the individual CSR domains remain uniformly dispersed during storage and formulating.

  8. Basic Properties of MX system Rubber particles are homogeneously dispersed in epoxy resin. Available as Concentrate containing 25 wt% of CSR. Appearance Viscosity vs. CSR Content Conventional CSR (10wt%) in epoxy New CSR (25wt%) in epoxy

  9. Comparison of the Kane Ace MX and Conventional CSR TEM observation - Cured system Appearance - Cured system “Transparent” 1mm

  21. Kaneka Corporation • Today Kaneka is a world leader in the creation of innovative technologies in areas such as polymers, construction materials, and pharmaceuticals. • Kaneka is a global organization with production facilities on four continents and approximately 7000 employees. • Revenue for our latest fiscal year (ended March ‘04) is estimated worldwide at approximately $4.3 billion.

  22. Kaneka Global Manufacturing • Kaneka currently manufactures “Modifiers” at four sites around the world. These include: Kaneka Japan Asia Takasago, Japan Kaneka Texas USA Pasadena, Texas Kaneka Belgium Europe Oevel, Belgium Kaneka Malaysia Asia Kuantan, Malaysia • These four sites provide Kaneka with an annual capacity of modifiers of approximately 350 million pounds.

  23. Kaneka Texas Corporation • A wholly owned subsidiary opened in 1983, Kaneka Texas (KTC) is responsible for marketing several Kaneka product lines throughout the Americas. • Business operating at KTC include: • 1.) Polymer Modifiers (Kane Ace) • 2.) CPVC Resins (Kanevinyl) • 3.) Foamed Olefins Resins (Eperan, Eperan PP) • 4.) Modified Silicone for Sealants (MS Polymer) • 5.) Polyimide Film (Apical) • 6.) Nutrients (CoQ10)
