1. Carbon Fiber Prepreg Overview

Carbon fiber prepreg is carbon fiber fabric that has been pre-impregnated with epoxy resin at controlled ratios. The resin is partially cured (B-staged) to allow for easy handling and layup, then fully cured in an autoclave or oven to achieve optimal mechanical properties.

Key Advantages:

  • Consistent Quality: Precise resin content control (typically 35-45%)
  • Higher Fiber Content: Up to 65% fiber volume fraction
  • Reduced Voids: Superior mechanical properties
  • Cleaner Process: No mixing required, reduced waste
  • Refrigerated Storage: 6-12 months at -18°C

4. FAQ

Q: What is the shelf life of carbon fiber prepreg?

A: Prepreg has 6-12 months shelf life when stored at -18°C. At room temperature, out-life is typically 1-3 months depending on the resin system.

Q: What’s the difference between prepreg and wet layup?

A: Prepreg offers consistent resin content, higher fiber volume, and superior mechanical properties. Wet layup is more economical but has more variability.

Q: Do you offer free samples?

A: Yes! Impact Materials provides free A4-sized samples (210×297mm) for evaluation. Standard samples ship within 3-5 days via express courier.
