Method For Producing Polymer Matrix Composites Having Low Volume Percentage Of Reinforcement Fiber And Controlled Thickness

US Patent:
6406660, Jun 18, 2002
Filed:
Feb 7, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/499171
Inventors:
William A. Spurgeon - Newark DE
Assignee:
The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Army - Washington DC
International Classification:

Abstract:
A method of forming fiber reinforced polymer matrix composite structures having a low volume fraction of fiber reinforcement and carefully controlled thicknesses is provided. The method enables the production of composite structures having a fiber volume fraction of less than about 0. 5 through the use of vacuum bag molding, thereby eliminating the need for expensive closed molds, The method also eliminates the occurrence of “racetracking” of uncured resin during the resin infusion process.
