RESI4ABLATION:
Resin Innovation for Thermal Protection
RESI4ABLATION is a unique, nearly 100% biobased, formaldehyde-free Araminolic resin offering exceptional thermal properties and high charring capability. It combines exceptional thermal resistance to maintain integrity under extreme heat with mechanical stability that ensures performance during thermal shock and stress. Developed as a safer alternative to traditional phenolic resins, it helps reduce CMR substances in your value chain while supporting sustainability and sovereignty goals through local sourcing.
Key Features
- High thermal properties: coke rate > 55%, stable up to 1200°C
- Compatible with impregnation processes and carbon fibers
- Water-based technology for safer handling
- Free from formaldehyde, phenol, furfuraldehyde, and endocrine disruptors
- REACH compliant, SVHC-free, no CMR pictograms
- Custom Formulation: Adaptable to your specific ablative requirements
Benefits
- Exceptional thermal protection for atmospheric re-entry bodies, heat shields, propulsion nozzles, and fuselage structure parts
- Regulatory peace of mind: no health hazard pictograms
- Supports sustainable development and CO₂ reduction targets
Sustainability Built In
RESI4ABLATION contributes to your company’s sustainability roadmap:
- 100% toward biobased formulation using 5-HMF monomers
- Low CO₂ emissions (1.20–2.20 kg CO₂/kg)
- European sourcing aligned with RE2020 objectives
- Petroleum resource independence
