Structural Kinels

1 Description. Two major feunllies of PABM compounds have been developed to satisfy the needs of two distinct types of end-uses. The first series of PABMs is directed to applications where mechanical properties are of prime import these PABMs are fiberglass reinforced. 

KINEL 5504 Is 65% filled with quarter-inch glass fibers, exhibits the highest mechanical properties of any KINEL (49,500 psi flexural strength and 3.25 MSI flexural m ulus at room temperature), and is generally compression molded. Current commercial end-uses include jet engine parts typical of these are the blocker doors used for retro-thrust in the Rolls-Royce RB.211 engines of the Lockheed L-1011. 

KINEL 5514 is 50% filled with eighth-inch glass fibers and is specially formulated for thin wall moldings. Typical end-uses Include high-temperature electrical connectors and high precision moldings. 

KINEL 5515 is a modified version of 5514, which is particularly suited for transfer molding applications. KINEL 5515 may be cured in 1-5 minutes at 380°F.
