Peel ply Release film Breather How can Compoflex® save production time and costs? The Compoflex products are breathable microporous peeling materials. Designed to replace up to three consumables with a single layer in composite manufacturing, Compoflex® offers direct benefits: ® • Superior peeling properties The microporous surface and the low surface tension of PP nonwovens ensure that Compoflex® peels at one-fifth of the force needed to peel conventional peel ply. • Uniform bleeding Random microporous perforation style enables uniform bleeding and thereby stronger and lighter laminates. Furthermore, overlapping is possible without jeopardizing laminate quality. • Time and cost savings – less time in the mold Compoflex® can replace three consumables – peel ply, release film and breather. Fewer consumables combined with easy peeling reduce costs and handling time, simplifying the process considerably and thereby ensuring more output from the individual molds. • Easy peeling minimises resin dust Compoflex® peels easily, and hardened resin remains in the liner reducing the amount of airborne resin dust. Traditional peel ply generates intensive resin dust activity, causing an unhealthy working environment. Secondary Bonding Compoflex® SB • Compoflex® SB with secondary bonding properties Compoflex® SB is designed to produce a surface ready for secondary bonding while maintaining the superior peeling properties of the standard Compoflex® products. Compoflex® SB is offered in three versions for pre-preg and hand lay-up. Distributed by: Compoflex®: All-in-one!
