———————————————————————————
Composite prepreg materials are a combination of a resin matrix and reinforcing fibres, pre-impregnated and ready for layup. They offer a convenient and efficient way to fabricate composite structures. The resin matrix, typically epoxy or polyester, provides the binding and structural properties, while the reinforcing fibres (such as carbon, glass, or aramid) impart strength and stiffness. Prepregs are available in various forms, including sheets, tapes, and fabrics, and can be tailored to specific applications based on their desired properties and performance requirements.
