Technical Fibre Products (TFP) will be exhibiting its advanced nonwoven materials at Composites Europe in Stuttgart, Germany from 22-24 September.
TFP will showcase products from its Optiveil, Optimat and Tecnofire ranges including a new, extended range of high performance thermoplastic veils including PPS, PEI, PEEK, polyamide and polyimide. These materials have been developed to improve the mechanical properties of a composite with minimal modifications to the manufacturing process necessary. The lightweight veils can be interleaved between reinforcement plies to help improve the interlaminar toughness of a composite structure, increasing resistance to both mode-I and mode-II fracture.
TFP’s Tecnofire range of fire protection materials will also be on display at the show. The materials deliver passive fire protection at the surface of a composite without compromising the integrity of the structure.
