The hybrid-composite rear load floor uses unidirectional (UD) thermoplastic tapes plus direct-long-fiber thermoplastic (D-LFT) composites. Thermoplastic tapes provided high stiffness/strength in a ...
Predominantly, if the metal part used in compression molding is tension or compression loaded, a ratio of metal part thickness to its extensional modulus, multiplied by the Bulk Molding Compound (BMC) ...
Compression molding involves forming of complex shaped components by molding of a charge of fiber reinforced prepreg bulk molding compound (BMC) under heat and high pressures. Unidirectional fiber ...
