quality compared to other suppliers in the industry. As a result, materials are also used more efficiently by
reducing waste.

3) Increased productivity, both on-site and in a manufacturing plant.

4) Supports the goal of sustainable manufacturing by reducing the usage of natural resources such as water,
energy, and plastics.

5) Reduces energy use. The product is non-flammable. We can use it in a wide range of temperatures.

6) Decreases manual labor and time for various manufacturing processes.

Nelco N4000-11 composition

The Nelco N4000-11 Multifunctional Epoxy Laminate and Prepreg is a composite resin used in a wide range
of applications. The epoxy comes in two forms,

1) A molding compound that we can apply to molds (low viscosity),

2) We can easily pick up a more viscous epoxy material from the application area with brushes or fingers
(high viscosity).

Mechanical properties

The Nelco N4000-11 Epoxy Resin significantly increases mechanical properties, namely high strength and
stiffness, for all fiber loading. The resin is also suitable for manufacturing a variety of composites and other
materials because we can easily mold it into various shapes.

The material is also physically tough and has an excellent thermal resistance. As a result, manufacturers can
use the resin to produce a wide range of items that will stand up to harsh elements or environments.

The N4000-11 is resistant to heat, weathering, and chemicals, making it useful for manufacturing materials
that need to be resistant to harsh environmental conditions.

Thermal Properties

The Nelco N4000-11 can withstand temperatures of up to 200 degrees Celsius. This makes it a useful
material for manufacturing components that need to be resistant to high temperatures.

We can easily store the resin at room temperature because of its low sensitivity to temperature changes. The
resin will not become brittle when stored in cold temperatures. However, we must keep it in a dry area
without any potential for dampness or moisture.

The Nelco N4000-11 is not for use in applying heat over 150 degrees Celsius.
