They can be used alone or in conjunction with other materials such as thermoplastics, wood, and metal, and manufactured with techniques such as overmolding, coextrusion, and thermal lamination to incorporate CFRTP tapes and laminates into hybrid, multi-material structures.
Co-Molding Hybrid Structures
CFRTP can also be molded on or into thermoplastic structures via hybrid compression and injection overmolding to create locally reinforced, molded components in a one-step process.
