| FM® 6555-1 is a cyanate ester syntactic core material. It was designed as a cost and weight saving alternative in the manufacture of thin, stiffness critical composite panels for low dielectric applications and satellite structures. FM 6555-1 syntactic core is based on CYCOM® 5575-2 glass and quartz cyanate ester prepregs, FM 2555 and FM 2525 structural film adhesives and FM 313-27C syntactic paste, providing a compatible family of products. FM 6555-1 is available in sheet or roll form (availability in roll form is dependent on product thickness). Features & Benefits: - One of a family of compatible products based on second-generation cyanate ester chemistry
- Significantly improved electrical properties versus epoxy and BMI systems
- Excellent mechanical properties
- Service temperature from -70 to 350°F (-57 to 177°C) wet
- Simple thermoset processing
- Product and application patents received
Applications: - Thin composite panels for low dielectric applications and space structures where weight and/or cost are critical
