COMPOSITE MATERIALS
SOLVENT-FREE IMPREGNATION FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPOSITES
The characteristics of Fibroline’s dry powder impregnation technologies make them perfectly suited to composite materials. They can indeed impregnate all types of thermoplastics or thermosets without using solvents or water, and are completely independent from the polymer viscosity. They facilitate compliance with current regulations (such as REACH) regarding many solvents, particularly in the making of prepregs. These solutions also guarantee a perfectly homogeneous impregnation, leading to excellent mechanical performances of the final products.
REINFORCED MATERIALS & TAPES
BALLISTIC APPLICATIONS
Fibroline technologies are suitable for several military applications, in particular high-performance materials such as high impact resistance. Applications include body armors and helmets, and composite yarns are manufactured using Aramid or UHMWPE with a thermoplastic matrix.
COMPOSITE PREPREGS
D-Preg technology is suitable for the manufacturing of dry composite prepregs, with any type of thermoplastic or thermoset powders. Foams, nonwovens or woven fabrics can be impregnated alone to produce prepreg panels, or combined to form sandwich panels.
COMPOSITE TAPES
A wide range of reinforcements can be impregnated with various resins for composite-tape manufacturing. The Y-Preg technology is suitable to process glass fibers, aramid or natural fibers with any type of thermoplastic or thermoset resins.
