Toray CFRT® TW-1000
Toray Toray CFRT® TW-1000 is a reinforced thermoplastic composite laminate. It blends the benefits of a thermoplastic polymer matrix with woven carbon and glass fibers in a twill weave for enhanced shapes and performance. The TW1000 style laminate is available in a single-layer product; carbon in one direction and glass fibers at a 90° orientation to the carbon. This product is ultra-thin, lightweight, and resilient for improved energy return.
