CompPair Launches Pre-impregnated Textiles to Extend Composite Lifetime
CompPair announces the launch of its semi-autonomous repair solution. It is the result of more than 12 years of thorough research in the Laboratory for Processing of Advanced Composites (LPAC) at EPFL. The new solution was designed to extend the lifetime of composite structures in industries such as marine, sports, windmill, aerospace and automotive. New Product to Overcome Repair Time and Costs The first CompPair product family is a series of pre-impregnated textiles made of glass and carbon fibers, integrating their novel chemistry. When manufacturers build an entire composite structure with CompPair products, using conventional processing techniques, manufacturers can overcome recurring problems such as maintenance repair time and costs. During their lifetime and the healing phase, composites made with CompPair products, keep structural and lightweight properties, all that with a cost-effective and conventional manufacturing process. CompPair solution allows manufacturers to repair
