Prepregs
The
hybrid prepregs, are reinforcement fabrics or fibers impregnated in
machine
with a pre-catalysed resin system. The reinforcement is ready for
deposition in a mold without the addition of resins through
conventional production processes (hand lay up, infusion, injection).
Once the prepreg is placed in the mold, the resin contained completely
reticulates only heating it to the required temperature, thus following
the cure cycle shown in the data sheet. The quantity of resin present
in the fibers is directly declared by the manufacturer, as well as
the final characteristics of the laminate composite. The use of
prepregs drastically reduces the time and processing costs for the
production of high performances manufactured goods in composite.
