摘要:
A process for the manufacture of a prepreg comprising feeding a layer of unidirectional conductive fibres having a defined width, bringing into contact with a first face of the fibres a first layer of resin comprising thermosetting resin, and compressing the resin and fibres together by passing over one or more impregnation rollers, wherein the pressure exerted onto the conductive fibres and resin does not exceed 40 kg per centimetre of the width of the conductive fibres, and the resin being in sufficient amount for the resin to enter the interstices of the fibres and leave a first outer layer of resin essentially free of unidirectional conductive fibres.
摘要:
A prepreg comprising a structural layer of packed unidirectional conductive fibres comprising thermosetting resin in the interstices, and a first outer layer of resin comprising thermosetting resin, and being essentially free of unidirectional conductive fibres, which when cured under elevated temperature, produces a cured composite material comprising a cured structural layer of packed unidirectional conductive fibres and a first outer layer of cured resin comprising unidirectional conductive fibres dispersed within.
摘要:
A laminate or structure which comprises a conductive layer, a fibrous layer and a support layer adhering to an outer face of the laminate or structure, the support layer preventing distortion of the conductive layer during slitting of the laminate or structure to form a conductive strip.
摘要:
A strip of curable prepreg comprising unidirectional fibres aligned with the length of the strip, the fibres being at least partially impregnated with curable thermosetting resin and comprising a flexible polymeric sheet on an outer face of the strip, wherein the strip has a substantially rectangular cross-section defining a width and a thickness of the strip.
