A POLYMER MATRIX COMPOSITE STRUCTURE INCLUDING METALLISED FIBRES AND A METHOD OF PRODUCING IT

摘要

A polymer matrix composite structure for electrical purposes is produced by taking a fibre reinforcement substrate (1) to produce a pre-form (4) of a desired shape and configuration, metallising the pre-form to provide an electrically conductive coating for EMC capability, and impregnating the metallised pre-form with resin.
