Thermoplastic Powder Technology for Advanced Composite Systems

摘要: As high performance thermoplastic composites evolve as primary and secondary air craft structural materials, there exists a need to offer the community material form that greatly broadens selection of matrix materials. one looks at choices prepregs available on market today, an evaluation must be given pros cons individual material. Today, hot-melt result in stiff, boardy with no tack. This severely limits handleability layup complex contour tooling. If attempts tacky drapeable prepreg, it is often expense lengthy processing allows solvent removal without void formation.
