Stabilized complex composite preforms

摘要: A method for forming stabilized preforms complex composite articles is disclosed using a solid meltable uncatalyzed thermosetting resin as the stabilizing agent. The applied to each layer of preform and heated melt bond layers together. After cooling, resolidifies but does not set thereby holds in desired shape. can be first formed into flat sheet raw material from which shaped made by cutting sections are placed over mandrel reheating remelt allow conform shape mandrel. Utilizing this process allows parts easily preformed assembled prior placement mold injection molding, without inhibiting part strength compatible with cocatalyzed catalyst contained resin.
