HiMax™ 8gsm DPA (Dot Pattern Adhesive) products are designed to help composite manufacturers maintain the desired position of the reinforcement prior to resin introduction, particularly in closed mold processes such as vacuum infusion and resin transfer molding. HiMax™ DPA was developed to provide the optimal level of tack while keeping additional weight to a minimum. Using DPA in conjunction with HiMax™ fabrics allows the user to easily position and re-position the individual layers of their laminate stack before resin is introduced. Conformance to tight radii and complex mold geometry is also aided by DPA.
