Acid Anhydride Curing Agent HHPA

HHPA is a high-purity hexahydrophthalic anhydride curing agent from the HHPA Series by Jiangsu Sanmu Group—widely used in epoxy resins for electrical insulation, composites, and coatings due to its low volatility, excellent thermal stability, and superior moisture resistance compared to phthalic anhydrides.

Features Of Acid Anhydride Curing Agent HHPA

  1. High purity hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HHPA) with low volatile content for consistent epoxy curing performance.

  2. Excellent thermal stability and low exotherm profile, enabling controlled cure cycles in thick-section composites.

  3. Low viscosity and good miscibility with standard bisphenol-A and novolac epoxy resins.

  4. Superior electrical insulation properties after full cure, meeting IEC 60273 requirements.

  5. Hydrolytically stable structure, offering extended pot life under ambient humidity conditions.

Typical Applications Of Acid Anhydride Curing Agent HHPA

  1. Electrical encapsulation of high-voltage transformers and bushings.

  2. Insulating castings for dry-type power transformers and reactors.

  3. Matrix resin for filament-wound composite pressure vessels and structural components.

  4. Curing agent in aerospace-grade potting compounds requiring low outgassing and high Tg.

  5. High-performance laminates for printed circuit board (PCB) substrates demanding dimensional stability.
