AXIOM Materials
Axiom Materials provides superior film adhesive solutions that deliver consistency every time, along with an endless array of customization options. Whether your project requires a simple epoxy film adhesive or a complex, customized, high temperature material, Axiom is your trusted partner.
You can choose from Axiom’s standard product offerings or customize a highly specific product to meet your project needs. Axiom provides end-to-end client support and we pride ourselves on the opportunity to serve our clients. Our Team is passionate about the industry and committed to providing best-in-class-support that begins with our initial consultation.
Axiom’s epoxy film adhesives are some of our most widely used products. These high-performance adhesive solutions are designed for applications that require a lot of toughness. They come in a range of choices and product applications, allowing you to optimize the level of toughness, heat resistance, and durability that you need. Epoxy film adhesives are generally supported, but also come in unsupported variations for specialized applications.
Axiom’s permanent structural bonds can withstand temperatures from -67°F to 700°F. Our materials are designed to stand up to high temperatures and harsh chemical environments. Even our low-temperature materials hold up against some of the roughest wear and tear. Our higher-temperature materials are ready to withstand combustion engines, high speeds, hot-burning fuels, and more. Furthermore, our adhesives can withstand these elements even when they are maximized by hot, humid, and otherwise harsh weather conditions.
Multiple types of bonding: Metal to metal, composite to metal, wood to composite, honeycomb sandwich bonding, polymer foam panel core bonding, ceramic bonding, and tile bonding.
Processing: Axiom provides variable temperature cure products from 160°F to 350°F. Our adhesives can be used in press applications, autoclave processing, VBO OOA applications, and trapped molding applications.
Cured bond lines: Our cured bond lines exhibit a combination of high strength and resistance to industrial fluids.
At Axiom Materials, we are committed to building adhesive solutions that are tough enough to stand up to harsh elements and high temperatures. Adhesive solutions are flexible enough to provide you with the exact option that you need.
If you have any questions about our Film Adhesives product line – please let us know. We are readily available to discuss your application, learn more about your needs, and address any questions.

CMC prepregs are used for parts requiring thermal performance up to 2200°F
Specially formulated resin systems include epoxy, phenolic, polyester, cyanate ester, vinyl ester and polyimide.
Film adhesives are pre-formed adhesive materials supplied as films for bonding substrates such as composites, metals, honeycomb cores, foam cores, ceramics, tile, and wood. They help provide controlled adhesive thickness and consistent bond-line application.
Axiom Materials offers epoxy core splice adhesives, cyanate ester film adhesives and toughened phenolic film adhesives for ballistic applications or adhesion promotion, including supported and unsupported options. The company also provides standard product offerings and custom film adhesive solutions for application-specific requirements.
Axiom film adhesives are used for bonding applications involving metal, composite, honeycomb, foam core, ceramic, tile, and wood substrates. The company’s product range includes epoxy film adhesives and foaming epoxy core splice adhesives.
Supported film adhesives include a carrier or support material that can improve handling and placement during bonding. Unsupported film adhesives do not include that support and may be selected for specialized applications where a carrier is not required.
Yes. Customers can choose from standard film adhesive products or work with the company to customize a material for specific project needs.
Film adhesive selection depends on substrate type, bond-line requirements, cure temperature, service temperature, processing method, toughness needs, and environmental exposure. Customers should review the applicable SDS/TDS documentation and consult Axiom’s technical team for application-specific guidance.
AXIOM epoxy tooling prepregs support composite mold-making applications that require dependable processing and finished tool quality. They are a strong fit for teams looking for practical cure options and consistent laminate behavior during tool fabrication.
AXIOM BMI tooling prepregs are formulated for more demanding tooling requirements where elevated-temperature performance is part of the specification. They help manufacturers build tools for composite programs that place more stress on the tooling system.
A tooling prepreg has to do more than cure. It has to handle correctly, lay up cleanly, and produce a tool surface that does not create problems later in production.
Designed for mold-making programs using autoclave or out-of-autoclave processing.
Supports tooling applications where cosmetics and low pinholing are part of the manufacturing requirement.
Available in epoxy and BMI systems to match different process and performance needs.
Axiom's processing experts can help match tooling materials to the application, cure approach, and production environment.
