Advantages in RTM and PREPREG process

On our meltblown line, we have succeeded in producing a nonwoven that significantly reduces the amount of post-processing required in the production of CFRP components. The nonwoven increases the resin content on the surface, exactly where it is needed.


The result is a homogeneous resin layer without a disruptive third phase in the composite material. The use of MELPLA SE in the prepreg or RTM process minimises pores and air pockets on the surface, reduces pinholes and increases the impact strength of the fabric.

Benefits:

  • Minimization of pores and air pockets on the surface
  • Reduction of the tendency to pin holes
  • Increasing impact strength
  • Reduction of post-processing effort


Resinous transformation:


The synthetic resin groups in the nonwoven harden with the hardener in the system. Creating a homogeneous, transparent resin layer onthe surface.
