Résumé : |
A new process enables composites to be re-used several times and negates theneed for an autoclave, significantly reducing cost and increasing production capacity. The P2T process addresses one of the most debated topics in the composites industry : end-of-life recycling. |
Note de contenu : |
- Reactive thermoplastic resin
- Recycled multiple times
- Fig. 1 : Prodrive Composite has developed a process to manufacture recyclage composites called P2T or Primary 2 tertiary. Note that the finished component has a near identical appearance to one made with primary prepreg material
- Fig. 2 : A comparison between standard prepreg and the secondary recycled carbon material
- Fig. 3 : Prodrive uses a variety of processes in ther manufacturing techniques, including pattern machining
- Fig. 4 : Customers can ask Prodrive to not just manufacture the composite components but also design them
- Fig. 5 : Recycled material lay-up onto carbon mould
- Fig. 6 : An on-site painting facility enables Prodrive Composites to supply automotive manufacturers with ready-to-fit parts |
