Described herein is an improved process for rapidly fabricating fiber reinforced thermoset resin articles comprising: (a) providing in a heatable matched metal die mold a bonded web of one or more fibers with a melting point or a glass transition temperature above about 130°C, (b) providing in an accumulator zone a liquid body of a thermosettable organic material having a viscosity determined at 120°C, in the absence of curing agent, of less than about 50 centipoises. which is curable upon heating to a thermoset resin composition, the viscosity of said liquid body being maintained essentially constant in the accumulator zone by keeping its temperature below that at which curing of said materials is substantial, (c) closing said mold containing said web, (d) injecting at least a portion of said thermosettable organic material under pressure from said accumulator zone into the mold to thereby fill the cavity in said mold, (e) initiating the curing of said materials by subjecting the materials to a temperature by heating the mold, which is above the temperature at which the curing of said materials is initiated, and (f) opening said molding and removing the cured thermoset article therefrom, wherein the improvement comprises improving the release of the cured article from the mold by increasing the cross-link density of the cured thermosettable organic material in the molded article. Also described herein are curable molding compositions used for the rapid fabrication of fiber-reinforced thermoset resin articles having improved mold release characteristics.
本文描述的是一种用于快速制造纤维增强热固性树脂制品的改进工艺,包括:(a) 在可加热的匹配金属模具中提供由一种或多种纤维组成的粘合网,其熔点或玻璃化转变温度高于约 130°C,(b) 在蓄积区中提供由可热沉降有机材料组成的液态体,其粘度在 120°C、无固化剂的情况下测定小于约 50 厘泊。(c) 关闭装有所述卷材的模具,(d) 将至少一部分热固性有机材料在压力下从所述蓄积区注入模具,以填充模具中的空腔、(e) 通过加热模具使所述材料处于高于启动所述材料固化的温度的温度下,从而启动所述材料的固化,以及 (f) 打开所述模塑并从中取出固化的热固性物品,其中的改进包括通过增加模塑物品中固化的热固性有机材料的交联密度来改善固化物品从模具中的脱模。本文还描述了用于快速制造纤维增强热固性树脂制品的可固化成型组合物,该组合物具有更好的脱模特性。
