"Composite Technology" gives an overview of the current state of prepreg technology, generation, and development as well as their variations and trends. It covers the fundamentals of prepreg preparation and starting materials; processing technology and automation; interactions between construction/design and material and between tooling material and composite components/design; testing of prepreg semi-finished products and components; and typical error patterns.
The second edition has been systematically updated; in particular, new developments at manufacturers and processors have been incorporated. The addition of thermoplastic prepregs (TPP) and their production, processing, and testing completes the topic.
