Solid epoxy prepregs with patterned resin distribution: Influence of pattern and process parameters on part quality in vacuum‐bag‐only processing

Jan Philipp Janzen,
David May

Abstract: Solid resins (SR) are fully reactive resin systems that are solid at room temperature. Up to a critical temperature they can be quasi‐infinitely molten and solidified without any relevant curing reaction. This study deals with novel SR‐based prepregs where a dry textile is covered with a regular SR (uncured) pattern, allowing for storage and draping at room temperature. The manufacturing of SR prepregs with accurate pattern geometries and the processing of the same into laminates with a pore volume content <… Show more

“…In the context of advanced composite materials, powder-based systems occupy several niches within the market: powder binder for preforming [5][6][7][8][9], powder towpregging [10][11][12][13][14], and powder semi-pregging [15][16][17][18][19]; each of which is shown in Figure 1. In the context of advanced composite materials, powder-based systems occup eral niches within the market: powder binder for preforming [5][6][7][8][9], powder towpre [10][11][12][13][14], and powder semi-pregging [15][16][17][18][19]; each of which is shown in Figure 1. In the case of powder binders, typically, only 3-9 wt% of polymer powder is a to dry reinforcing fabric.…”

“…Reprocessing is a poss for these epoxy powders because they contain latent, heat-activated curing agent have a glass transition temperature above 40 °C. This means that they require no ref ated storage to prevent curing, i.e., the epoxy powder is stable at ambient conditio several months, unlike conventional liquid epoxy systems which undergo ageing [2 Likewise, epoxy powders have undergone significant development for powder pregs; a form of vacuum-bag-only (VB ) prepreg developed for low-cost out-of-auto ( oA) processing [16,17,19,26,27]. Vacuum-bag-only (VB ) prepregs differ from co tional prepregs in that the fibre bed is only partially impregnated with resin.…”
