Autoclave Moulding of Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastics.

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA179015 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The numerous facets of autoclave moulding have been investigated in order to provide an improved understanding of empirically derived cure cycles. Such features as partial-cure, dwell-time, dual vacuum, and dual pressure have been examined and their significance in relation to laminate quality explained. Keywords carbon reinforced composites, carbon fibers, plastics
