NEW YORK, March 24th, 2022 - Mitsubishi Gas Chemical (MGC) announced Airtech International Inc. as its global* distribution partner for its NEXX Technologies business division.

The Heat-Tech® Z-1 is a single-zone easy-to-use mobile heating element system. Consisting of a small powerful resistive heating control unit and a flexible silicone heating blanket with integrated temperature sensors.

Wrightlease 4 is an extruded fluoropolymer film coated with silicone pressure sensitive adhesive. The orange color is highly visible on most substrates in addition to offering high elongation and tensile strength.

Vac Saver HT is a one way valve usable to protect vacuum bagged parts against vacuum loss which are multiple connected to a vacuum source. In case of a vacuum loss in a part which is connected to the same vacuum source, the Vac Saver HT closes automatically and protects this part against vacuum loss.

Corehold P-HA is a core holding film designed to hold honeycomb core and other core materials during machining. It is a polyester film coated on one side with a silicone free synthetic rubber adhesive. The film is supplied with a yellow backing release paper on one side.

Stretch Flow P 2000 is a knitted, polyester breather with excellent stretch properties. The high-stretch characteristics of Stretch Flow P 2000 enable it to conform to many complex contour surfaces, ensuring good application of pressure by vacuum bags.

Vac Valve 429 SS HTR was designed for high temperature cures where standard valves with silicone rubber seals fail. Vac Valve 429 SS HTR is to be used for direct connection to vacuum hoses instead of complex and expensive coupling systems.

Thermalimide RCBS is a high performance release film treated on both sides for cure temperatures up to 761°F (405°C). Thermalimide RCBS is an ideal release film used during the forming process of thermoplastic materials and other high temperature applications.

New generation sealant tape for high temperature applications. Fast Tack HT builds tack quickly when applied to Thermalimide. Having good room temperature adhesion to the high temp bagging film reduces the time required to vacuum bag high temperature parts.

Airweave® UHT 300PGL and Airweave® UHT 450PGL are premium non-woven blended, fiberglass breather for ultra high temperature applications. It is safer to use these breathers in place of woven fiberglass breathers.

GS-333LT is a low tack version of our standard GS-333 tape. GS-333LT is a sealant tape which has been designed to take longer cures and still remove cleanly.

Flashbreaker® 1R is now available in 1” x 2” (2.54 cm x 5.08 cm) Pre-Cut Tape Strips for customers who want to reduce touch labor and minimize the use of knives and scissors to avoid risk of hand injury. In addition, it eliminates the possibility of damaging the vacuum bag. There’s 2,500 cut strips per roll.

We are now able to offer additional tapes in Pre-Cut format to customers who want to reduce touch labor and minimize the use of knives and scissors to avoid risk of hand injury. In addition, it eliminates the possibility of damaging the vacuum bag.

Airtech TMGC-TX Fabrics are Triaxial Carbon Fabrics developed for the manufacture of composite molds with Airtech Toolfusion® resins.

A4000 LFST is a heat shrinkable lay-flat tube which has been oriented in the transverse direction. When exposed to heat 249 to 348°F (121 to 176°C) in a recirculating oven, tunnel oven or from a heat gun, the A4000 LFST material will shrink to closely fit the mandrel.

Airtac 3 is a new, safer spray adhesive designed for temporary bonding. Airtac 3 can be used to hold dry materials on contours and vertical surfaces. This product is ideally suited to resin infusion applications for holding reinforcement plies, release films, peel plies, and infusion mesh in place until the vacuum bag is secured. Airtac 3 has a fine pebble spray pattern which reduces airborne material. This reduces overspray and user exposure. Air trigger is sold separately.

Combo-Tech is our expanded product line that bonds various vacuum bagging materials together to form a better overall product and reduce “touch labor”, saving companies hours of labor expense while increasing productivity.

Filmcote® 1524 is an engineered film developed as a replacement for release liquids on the surface of mold tools. Filmcote® 1524 remains on the part surface after demold providing protection from damage or contamination during subsequent process.

Beta TX670 DISCO is a prepreg sold in sheet format. This special format allows for simpler and faster layups. Beta TX670 DISCO Prepreg has a 0°,+/-60° orientation, is quasi-isotropic within each ply, and comes with an engineered cut pattern that improves drapability.
