POSTVILLE, IA - Norplex-Micarta announces a low-cost line of non-adhesive pre-preg thermoset composites (b-stage products). The non-tacky pre-preg materials are dry to the touch and therefore, do not require the release film found on conventionally tacky pre-pregs. Without the need to remove conventional release films, this pre-preg can be stored, handled, and processed more easily and efficiently, thereby reducing set-up labor costs by as much as 75%. These economic materials continue to provide the same flow and bonding performance of more expensive, traditional materials.
High-performance pre-preg composites from Norplex-Micarta can be customized to fit a diverse range of customer requirements. Available substrates include glass, cotton, paper, carbon fiber, and customer-specific substrates; resin systems include phenolic, epoxy, melamine, and specialty resin systems.
Norplex-Micarta pre-preg products are manufactured in a state-of-the-art factory environment. Computer controlled processes maintain tight resin/substrate ratios for consistent reactivity. Norplex-Micarta utilizes the most stringent vendor qualification process in the thermoset laminate industry and strictly monitors raw materials to guarantee the highest quality pre-preg products.
