Kordsa OM 12

OM 12 is a glass fiber or carbon fiber reinforced composites offer advantages of high corrosion resistance and high strength-to-weight ratio than traditional wood or steel materials. Kordsa may provide different reinforcement materials including glass or carbon UD, 2D and multiaxial impregnated with epoxy. For the huge size part production, generally vacuum bag only prepregs (OM12) are recommended

Thermoplastic Prepregs

Kordsa produces woven based PP and PA thermoplastic prepregs. Matrices of the fiber based thermoplastic composite such as PP and PA have already been used notably in automotive, industrial, sports and leisure industries thanks to their cost saving and light weighting properties as well as being easy to process with the low processing temperature and pressure. Kordsa's product range for polymer matrices is PP and PA6.6. The resin systems are specially formulated by Kordsa, which has excellent compatibility with reinforcing fibers such as E-glass or carbon. Prepreg is available as sheets with maximum dimensions of 1.2 m x 1.2 m. Laminates are usually produced from one to four layers depending on customer requirements. Kordsa's woven glass fabric based PP thermoplastic prepreg exhibit 25% better flexural properties compared to its counterparts.
