Optimization of technological modes for moulding composites using vacuum infusion technology

Abstract

Abstract The aim of this study is to optimize the resin infusion time of carbon fiber reinforced plastic laminates depend on temperature gradient using vacuum infusion technology. At room temperature the resin infusion time of moulding large composites part cause production slowly. So the infusion time must be considered in the production of large composite part. We can decrease the resin infusion time by heating the mould with greater temperature logically. But there will be thermal damage in finished composites product. In this paper we studied the resin infusion time and proper temperature gradient without losing its composites properties. This study leads to the development of rapid production in vacuum infusion technology.
