摘要 |
<p>The invention mainly concerns a method for making a composite RTM part (23) which consists in producing a dry fibrous preform (8) by inserting in said dry preform (8) composite parts (10, 11) made of prepregs. Said parts, pre-impregnated with a first resin, are partly polymerized. The assembly is placed in a mold (16). A second resin is injected into the mold and impregnates the dry fibers (7). The two resins are polymerized simultaneously. The partial polymerization of the pre-impregnated parts (10, 11) results in a good chemical bonding between the two resins. The pre-impregnated parts (10, 11) have better mechanical properties, in particular in compression, than RTM parts. This is particularly due to a better alignment of the fibers (12) in the direction of stresses, and to a higher fiber volume ratio. The final component (23), reinforced with pre-impregnated parts, has better mechanical properties than the same RTM component without pre-impregnated reinforcements, in particular in compression. The invention also concerns a connecting rod obtained by said method.</p> |
