CAMX 2022 exhibit preview: Renegade Materials Corp.

Renegade Materials Corp. (a wholly owned subsidiary of Teijin Holdings USA, Miamisburg, Ohio, U.S.), promotes its high-performance prepreg, resin transfer molding (RTM) resin and adhesive products for use in demanding aerospace applications. Renegade Materials offers polyimide, bismaleimide (BMI), epoxy, cyanate ester and hybrid systems.

Renegade Materials’ polyimides are reported to be next-generation, non-carcinogenic (non-MDA) formulations for prepreg, adhesive and RTM processes. These polyimide technologies are extensively deployed in high-temperature engine and aerostructure applications. Renegade developed its trademark RM-1100 polyimide prepregs — exhibiting optimized hot-wet properties and thermal oxidative stability — for use in both commercial and defense applications. The company’s AFR-PE-4, RM-1100 and MVK-14 polyimide prepregs all find use in high-rate production applications alongside Renegade’s polyimide paste and film adhesive complements. REACH-compliant versions of all polyimides are available. Renegade Materials also offers RTM-1100 and MVK-10 polyimide RTM resins used for molding complex geometric parts seeing service over 600°F. Renegade’s polyimide products are safe alternatives to PMR-15, titanium and toxic-insulating systems in primary structures for engines and airframes.  

Renegade Materials’ BMI product line includes prepreg systems (RM-3002 and RM-3004), RTM resins (RM-3000 and RM-3010) and adhesives (RM-3011, RM-3006 and RM-3007). The company’s RM-3004 out-of-autoclave (OOA) BMI prepreg system offers high strength and toughness, according to the company. Renegade BMI products are qualified in major high-rate production aerospace programs.

In addition, Renegade Materials offers low-dielectric epoxy and cyanate ester prepreg systems for radomes and low dielectric loss applications. RM-2014-LDk-TK low-dielectric epoxy prepregs exhibit dielectric properties nearly equivalent to traditional cyanate ester prepregs at a lower cost and with OOA processability. RM-2014-LDk-TK prepreg is said to be specially tailored for the satcom and nose radome markets. RM-5003 is a high-purity cyanate ester prepreg system developed to support demanding low dielectric constant and loss requirements for radome applications. RM-5001 caters to low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), and low moisture requirements of satellite and space markets.
