Global Cyanate Ester Resins Market: Overview Cyanate ester resins offer exceptional toughness and strength with improved electrical properties. They also offer lower moisture absorption compared to other resins. Cyanate ester resins provide high performance even at high temperature. Their performance is often compared to that of bismaleimide and polyimide resins. Cyanate ester resins are used in a varied range of applications including aircraft, spacecraft, antennae, missiles, microwave products, and microelectronics. Cyanate esters are formed through the reaction of cyanic acid and bisphenol esters. This reaction forms cyclotrimerize to further produce triazine rings during a second cure. Cyanate ester resins are preferred since they are more easily cured during the reaction compared to other epoxies. Toughness and strength of cyanate ester resins can be augmented by adding spherical rubber particles or thermoplastics. Many competitive properties of the cyanate ester resins matr...
