CFM introduced by Composite
Reinforcements
COMPOSITE Reinforcements, a supplier
of reinforcements to the UK composites industry, is introducing
a range of continuous filament mat (CFM) products and a chopped
strand mat/continuous filament mat (CSM/CFM).
The CFM products are for use in composite moulding applications
such as pultrusion, resin transfer moulding (RTM), vacuum
infusion and hand lay-up, and can be used with unsaturated
polyester, epoxy, phenolic and polyurethane resin systems.
They have good fibre distribution and resin wet-out, and there
are additional grades available for electrical battery separator
applications.
The new CSM/CFM material is said to combine the performance
of CFM with the easy use of CSM. Customers using the product
can expect increased moulding strength in hand lay-up, one
of the applications for which the combination material can
be used.
