Out-of-Mold, Ready to Paint Carbon Fiber Components for Structural & Semi-Structural Applications The Project The Surface RTM process uses ZOLTEK™ PX35 carbon fiber and a polyurethane (PU) resin system. This is then overmolded with a polyurethane paint coating, resulting in a premium and paintable surface quality composite part, directly out of the mold.This Surface RTM […]

The Team Zoltek™, KraussMaffei Technologies, and Lanxess have developed carbon fiber vehicle parts that outperform glass in Impact Strength, Tensile Strength, Tensile Modulus, and Density. KraussMaffei Technologies has successfully demonstrated direct compounding injection molding using ZOLTEK™ PX35 Commercial Carbon Fiber with Lanxess Durethan® Polyamide 6 polymer. The molding process was demonstrated using a complex front
