摘要:
A composite structural material and a method of making it, which material is thermoformable and capable of being rigidified by application of a resin, and which is useful in certain electronics applications because of a metallic layer incorporated within the structure. A layer of a selected metal is needle punched onto a fibrous batt of selected synthetic thermoplastic fibers, which is then thermoformed to a desired shape and rigidified by contacting with, and being embedded in, a suitable resin. Specific applications of the use of this composite include a parabolic dish-shaped antenna, an electromagnetic interference shield for electronic equipment, and a radioactive emission shield.

A process is provided for manufacturing blanks comprising the production of a batch of fiber-reinforced synthetic resin compound, the production of a piece of fiber mat, depositing the batch of compound onto the piece of fiber mat, and conveying them together into a press for molding them together. In such a process, the initial step of producing the fiber-reinforced synthetic resin compounds and in producing the fiber mat is the production of a running length of fiber, which is then either cut and combined with resin compounds for the production of the noted batches, or placed on a conveyor and combined with additional compound; the process includes operating the fiber producing apparatus and delivering the fibers produced to a cutting means of the equipment for producing the fiber-reinforced synthetic resin compounds for a first period of time and then delivering the fiber to the conveyor for the production of a fiber mat for a second period of time.Apparatus is provided comprising means for producing continuous lengths of mono filament, a molding plant for receiving mono filament, cutting it into short lengths, and combining it with resin compounds, and then forming batches of fiber-reinforced compound under compression; means for producing resin bonded fiber mats comprising a conveyor belt for receiving mono filament and for depositing resin thereon, for cutting pieces of mat from the mat thereby produced, associating batches of fiber-reinforced compound with pieces of the fiber mat, and delivering the fiber mat pieces together with the synthetic resin compound batches on them to a molding press.
摘要:
Fiber-reinforced resin composites or other materials are consolidated in a noncontact-frictionless manner through the use of a pressurized plenum chamber (20) of a fluid bearing (10). The fluid bearing (10) is flexible and floats relative to the material (16) to be consolidated so that ply drop-offs and other variations in the thickness or surface contour of the material are easily accommodated. While within the plenum chamber, the material is locally heated by radiant energy from a source (30) positioned within the chamber. This localized heating enables the material to solidify in cooler zones of the plenum chamber under a uniform pressure.

This invention is directed to a process of forming composites comprising reinforcing fibers dispersed in a thermoplastic polymer matrix, said process comprising the steps of coating a reinforcing fiber with a curable resin and an initiator for the curing of the resin and for the polymerization of monomer of said polymer; curing said resin to form cured resin coated fiber; coating said resin coated fiber with monomer of said polymer; polymerizing the monomer coating to form a polymer/resin coated fiber; and aligning the polymer/resin coated fiber and molding same into a desired reinforced thermoplastic composite.
摘要:
A series of filaments are grouped into rovings (10), with each roving being impregnated with a viscous, tacky resin binder. The rovings are guided (12, 14, 16) to and compressed against a mandrel (18). By controlling intraroving spacing and compression force, the rovings are compressed such that their lateral expansion results in adjacent roving bonding, whereby a singular band (22) of defined width, height and filament count is formed. The height and width is controlled by varying the compression force and the intraroving spacing. Band contouring is realized by severing (24, 26) selected rovings prior to band formation. Linear and rotational relative motion is provided (FIG. 11: 110, 112, 114) between the roving guiding and compression means and the mandrel to precisely orient the band.
摘要:
A fiber web reinforced plastic is formed by applying dry resin powder to opposite sides of a vertically moving web, and then melting and pressing the power into the web. The dry powder is applied to the web by being thrown thereagainst. The powder thus more effectively occupies the voids in the web to minimize the presence of air in the web. The thrown-on powder can be melted before the laminating pressure is applied.
摘要:
Shrinking of partially cured or B-staged resin coated fabric, also known as prepreg, during C-staging or full curing is reduced by cutting at least a plurality of the warp of the fabric in at least one location before C-staging. Prepreg is useful in the computer industry in the manufacture of printed circuit boards.
摘要:
A metal-laminated base material for printed circuit boards is produced in a double-belt press. Sheets of laminated material impregnated with an accelerated resin system and prehardened are preheated in a preheating zone, before running into a pressure-effective zone of the double-belt press, and are supplied together with the metal foils to the heating region of the pressure-effective zone. Here, the individual layers are pressed to form the base material. The base material is preferably cooled under pressure in a cooling region of the pressure-effective zone, if appropriate heat-treated, trimmed at the edges and cut to length. The process provides uniform base-material boards of perfect quality.
摘要:
A process for producing a clutch facing which comprises the steps of: impregnating inorganic fibers with a thermosetting resin; causing rubber composition sheets to adhere to the resin-impregnated inorganic fibers, said sheets having been obtained by causing organic fibers to add to a rubber composition as a processing aid and forming the resulting material into sheets; forming a preform therefrom; and molding the preform under heat and pressure.
摘要:
Process for the continuous production of single-ply or multi-ply laminates, comprising feeding from below and at an obtuse angle, a web uniformly coated with resin, on to a fiber web or reinforcing web which is under tension, so that the resin penetrates the fiber web or reinforcing web in a bubble-free manner, and then passing the fiber web or reinforcing web uniformly impregnated with resin, either by itself or conjointly with one or more separating films or decorative films or resin-impermeable covering films, through a heating zone and pressure zone, whereby a single-ply or multi-ply laminate is produced. Apparatus for carrying out the process is also described.
