Tenax®-E TPUD PEEK-HTS45 is a Thermoplastic Unidirectional prepreg (TPUD) which combines two high-performance materials. The polymer matrix of PEEK (polyetheretherketone) offers excellent resistance to chemicals and solvents and the utilization of Tenax®-E HTS45 a high tenacity carbon fiber manufactured with a tailored sizing for thermoplastics applications, result in a composite offering outstanding material performance. Product Benefits - High-performance mechanical properties
- Tailored thermoplastic sizing
- Continuous use at elevated temperature
- Low flammability, smoke and toxicity
- Resistant to chemicals and solvents
- Room temperature storage and shipping
- Compliant to Health, Safety and Environment requirement
- Recyclable
Process Benefits - Out of autoclave consolidation (press forming, vacuum bagging, filament winding)
- Short cycle time
- Thermo-formable
- Automated process (AFP, ATL)
- Thermoplastic joining technologies
