- AtenPly prepreg varieties and optionsJust like all Jonam Composites Ltd’s products prepregs can be made from a wide variety of thermoplastic polymers and reinforced with a range of continuous fibers in the color of your choice as detailed on the products page. AtenPly can be made to different widths and thicknesses. Surface veils or polymer rich surfaces can be incorporated.Importance of impregnation
High performance applications demand a high quality prepreg with a high degree of impregnation. . The high impregnation allows low pressure molding giving greater processing flexibility. There are a number of applications that due to the second-stage processing do not require such a high level of impregnation. When this is the case the prepreg tape can be produced at faster line speeds reducing the costs.Standard thermoplastic prepregsDue to demand Jonam have created a standard set of prepreg tapes. Some grades are available from stock and others to order- small samples may be available for evaluation. - AtenPly Made To Order
As AtenPly can be made with an incredible variety of combinations of fiber, thermoplastic matrix, and additions most prepreg is made to order. Examples of varieties made so far in addition to those above are:
- AtenPlyCPP40 Carbon Fiber/polypropylene prepreg in black
- Carbon/polycaprolactone(PCL biodegredable polymer) 10mm tape
- Carbon/polyetherimide (PEI) 100mm wide tape
- Aramid/polypropylene (PP) 25mm wide tape
- Glass/polyethyelene(PE) 100mm wide tape in a variety of colors
- Glass/polyethyelene(HDPE)100mm wide tape
- S2 glass/PBT 100mm tape
- Colored glass/PP 100mm wide tape with fiberglass surface veil
- Glass/PP tape 20mm with conductivity promoter
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Applications
- Processing of AtenPly
AtenPly is processed by heating above the melting point of the matrix and consolidating with pressure. Since there is no chemical reaction there are no emissions of volatiles. The high level of impregnation in the prepreg allows low pressure molding for high performance products giving greater processing flexibility.
