MULTILAYER POLYARYLENE SULFIDE COMPOSITE

摘要

A multilayer composite is described as well as methods for forming the multilayer composite and products that incorporate the multilayer composite. The multilayer composite includes a continuous fiber composite first layer and a second layer that is formed from the melt directly on the continuous fiber composite. The continuous fiber composite includes a plurality of unidirectionally aligned carbon fibers embedded within a polymer composition that includes a first polyarylene sulfide. The second layer includes a second polymer composition that can be the same as or different from the first polymer composition. Products can include electronic devices such as computers, cellular telephones, e-readers, etc. as well as panels, such as interior panels in vehicles.
