Although there are many books on thermoplastic composites available, none emphasize flexible towpregs and their composite properties. This book discusses various methods of manufacturing flexible towpregs, their properties, textile preforming behavior, properties of textile preforms, and properties of final composites.
Thermoplastic matrix composites have attracted much attention in the composites industry due to their easy processibility and improved impact properties. Although there are many books on thermoplastic composites available, none emphasize flexible towpregs and their composite properties. This book discusses various methods of manufacturing flexible towpregs, their properties, their textile preforming behavior, the properties of textile preform, and the properties of final composites.
FEATURES
- Gives readers a complete view of composite manufacturing
- Offers details on flexible prepregs that other books overlook, such as manufacturing methods, influence of processing parameters, and properties
- Includes explanations that cover all steps of manufacturing with examples
- Features case studies and homework exercises for all chapters to reinforce understanding
- Provides technological information, discussion, and analysis of problems related to all types of flexible towpregs, such as commingling, electrostatic powder coating, wrapped hybrid yarns, micro-braided hybrid yarns, core-spun hybrid yarns, and others
This book is aimed at readers working with composite materials, industrial textiles, and related areas to understand the significance of thermoplastic composites made through textile performance of flexible towpregs.
