摘要:
A method of fabrication processing a pre-preg material includes applying electromagnetic heating to a composition including a fiber and a resin. The electromagnetic heating is conducted with at least one fringing field capacitor utilizing radio frequency (RF) alternating current (AC) and controlling cross-linking of the resin in the composition via the electromagnetic heating.

A method and apparatus for fabricating a short length carbon fiber preform with a through thickness reinforcement is disclosed herein. The starting media for fabricating a net shape (e.g., annular disc) may meet specific requirements including a sufficient fiber volume and a binding mechanism compatible with the needle-punching process.

摘要:
A method for forming a molding compound including simultaneously chopping a non-synthetic reinforcement member and a synthetic reinforcement member and forming a hybrid reinforcement member from the chopped non-synthetic and synthetic reinforcement members. The hybrid reinforcement member can be molded into a molding compound.

A conformable veil is formed by impregnating a random mat of glass fibers formed with a polystyrene-based resin. The veil is then introduced between two layers of a sheet molding compound resin paste and compacted to form a compacted sheet. The compacted sheet is then introduced to a mold and molded to form a soft, flexible sheet molding composite part having good resin and fiber distribution. Resin and fiber distribution of the present invention is improved because the polystyrene-based resin is soluble in the sheet molding compound resin paste and allows the plurality of fibers to flow freely within the resin paste during the molding process.

A method of preparing a reinforcing structure for use in manufacture a pultruded part where the reinforcing structure is pulled through a pultrusion die in a continuous longitudinal pull direction. The method includes arranging a plurality of first reinforcing fibers in a transverse direction and attaching a permeable transport web of staple fibers to the first reinforcing fibers such that the portion of the first reinforcing fibers oriented in the direction transverse comprises at least 30% of a volume of materials comprising the reinforcing structure.

摘要:
In this method, a delamination resistant three dimensional double curvature surface colored composite article is made by providing a membrane with a delamination-resistant coloring coating and applying the membrane to an injection mold having mold halves, a mold parting face, mold cavity edge and a mold cavity therein for the formation of an injection molded article, and injecting molten plastic into the mold cavity in order to form a three dimensional double curvature surface composite article with the membrane bonded to the injected plastic. Alternatively, the membrane is thermoformed.

This invention relates to an anti-skid flame blocker thermal barrier fabric and fiber blend that will not ignite or burn upon exposure to open flame but instead forms a reinforced char layer that prevents a flame and the associated heat from transferring to ignite or melt any flammable substrate. In a preferred embodiment the invention comprises a concentration of organic fibers (A), a concentration of inorganic fibers (B), a flame retardant (C), and an anti-skid treatment (D). The concentrations of fibers are blended and treated to form an anti-skid flame blocker thermal barrier fiber blend capable of forming an anti-skid flame blocker thermal barrier fabric (F). A concentration of binder fibers or powders (E) may alternatively supplement the fiber blend to act as a bonding agent.
摘要:
The present invention provides a mat having at least one primary area and at least one secondary area and adapted to reinforce a polymeric matrix material, the mat comprising (a) a first layer comprising a plurality of generally parallel, essentially continuous glass fiber strands oriented generally parallel to a longitudinal axis of the mat, at least a portion of outer surfaces of the first layer glass fiber strands having applied thereon at least a partial layer comprising at least a partially dried residue of first coating composition which is compatible with a polymeric matrix material, wherein at least a first portion of the first layer glass fiber strands are positioned within the at least one primary area at a primary strand density and at least a second portion of the first layer glass fiber strands are positioned within the at least one secondary area at a secondary strand density which is different from the primary strand density; and (b) a second layer comprising a plurality of randomly oriented glass fiber strands positioned within the at least one primary area and the at least one secondary area and adjacent to a surface of the first layer, at least a portion of outer surfaces of the second layer glass fiber strands having applied thereon at least a partial layer comprising at least a partially dried residue of a second coating composition which is compatible with the polymeric matrix material, wherein the first and second layers are joined to hold the mat together.
