PROCESS OVERVIEW Polystrand™ advanced thermoplastic composites combine high strength, unidirectional, continuous fibers with engineered thermoplastic resins to create continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP) materials that feature exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and high impact resistance. Mold to compress and cool into shape CFRTP is preheated and inserted into tool 3 Material heating, melting, and conveying Solid resin infeed 1 5 ON-ROAD TRANSPORTATION Underbody shields, underhood enclosures, interior components, storage OFF-ROAD VEHICLES Skid plates, doors, seat structures, exterior panels & moldings Traditionally, molding with short and long glass-filled polypropylene to gain flexural performance over unfilled polypropylene also results in a loss of impact resistance.
