Introduction Advantages Materials Processes

ComPRIS composite parts can be fabricated with:


- Two quality surfaces (SCRIMP typically has one surface with waviness).

- Embedded inserts such as connectors, instruments and cores.

- Higher viscosity resins than SCRIMP. For example, vinyl ester resins with less styrene content can be used.

- E-glass fibers and a variety of other reinforcement fibers/fabrics.

- Vinyl ester resin as well as other resins compatible with the reinforcements used.

- A large number of porous core or laminate substrates including foam core wood, cement, and plastics.
