Thermoset resin fibres

摘要

The present invention relates to thermoset resin fiber components, composite materials including thermoset resin fiber components, composite articles manufactured using such composite materials and methodologies for manufacturing same. The thermoset resin fiber components may include a single fiber of thermoset resin or a plurality of fibers commingled together. The properties and characteristics of the thermoset resin used are chosen according to the material to be produced therefrom. The thermoset fiber components may be woven into reinforcement fibers to form prepregs. Thermoplastic fibers may be commingled and co-woven with the thermoset fiber components.

主权项

1. A composite material in the form of a thread or yarn comprising a curable thermoset resin fibre component and a thermoplastic fibre component, said thermoplastic fibre component comprising thermoplastic polymer for improving the toughness of the thermoset resin fibre component and a cure agent, said thermoset resin fibre component and said thermoplastic fibre component being commingled to form the composite material.
