Toray Cetex® TC925 FST

1 of 15 products in this brand
Toray Toray Cetex® TC925 FST is a value-oriented engineered thermoplastic composite, utilizing a polycarbonate compound for impact toughness and good fire resistance. Although Toray Cetex® TC925 FST is a cost-effective material to begin with, the real cost saving on a part level lies in streamlining production with < 3 minutes per automated process cycle, cutting out most manual postprocessing and potential for error. Additionally, this material offers a very good surface quality. Toray Cetex® TC925 FST is available as a fabric prepreg, but is typically supplied in pre-consolidated reinforced thermoplastic laminates (RTLs) of varying thicknesses and lay-ups. Laminates from natural color resin have a translucent quality. A white color option is also available. PolyCarbonate (PC) Thermoplastic Resin System.
