Product catalog summary
Overview of Compoflex® Products
Compoflex® is a range of breathable microporous peeling materials designed to replace multiple consumables in composite manufacturing with a single layer. Key benefits include superior peeling properties, controlled flow front, minimized resin dust, and time and cost savings.

Key Features
  • Superior Peeling Properties: The microporous surface and low surface tension of PP nonwovens allow for easy release, requiring only one-fifth of the force needed for conventional peel ply.
  • Controlled Flow Front: Ensures full impregnation of laminates, eliminating dry areas and allowing for overlapping without compromising quality.
  • Minimized Resin Dust: Easy release reduces airborne resin dust, improving the working environment.
  • Time and Cost Savings: Replaces peel ply, release film, and flow mesh, reducing costs and handling time.

Secondary Bonding with Compoflex® SB
Compoflex® SB provides a surface ready for secondary bonding while maintaining superior peeling properties.

Technical Specifications
  • Composition: 100% PP, except RF products which are 67% PP and 33% PET.
  • Resin Compatibility: Suitable for polyester, vinylester, epoxy, phenolic, and other resins. Testing is recommended.
  • Working Temperature: Recommended max. temperature is 144°C (293°F), with a melting point of 165°C (329°F). Can be used up to 200°C (392°F) with caution.

Certifications
Fibertex Nonwovens is certified according to EN ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, ensuring compliance with European technical and environmental regulations.

Peel ply Release film Flow mesh 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. Compoflex® offers direct benefits: • Superior peeling properties The microporous surface and the low surface tension of PP nonwovens ensure that Compoflex® releases at one-fifth of the force needed to peel conventional peel ply. Compoflex® can stay on the laminate for days without jeopardizing the easy peeling properties. • Controlled flow front For high-density and compact laminates, it is very important to have a controlled flow front. The random microporous perforation style ensures full impregnation of the laminate, thus eliminating dry areas. Furthermore overlapping is possible without jeopardizing laminate quality. It is important to note that the controlled flow front may require a change in set-up (more and/or bigger valves depending on laminate size and thickness). • Easy release minimises resin dust Compoflex® releases easily so that hardened resin remains in the liner, reducing the amount of airborne resin dust. The release force required when not using Compoflex® generates intensive resin dust activity, causing an unhealthy working environment. • Time and cost savings – less time in the mold Compoflex® RF replaces peel ply, release film and flow mesh. Fewer consumables combined with easy release reduce costs and handling time, simplifying the process considerably and thereby ensuring more output from the individual molds. Secondary Bonding Compoflex® SB • Excellent secondary bonding surface Compoflex® SB is designed to produce a surface ready for secondary bonding while maintaining the superior peeling properties of the standard Compoflex® products.

Difficult release...? Peel ply Release film Flow mesh General info Composition: 100% PP except RF products: 67% PP (nonwoven) / 33% PET (grid) Resin: Works well with polyester, vinylester, epoxy, phenolic and other types of resin, but testing is always recommended. Surface preparation: Compoflex® SB products may reduce or eliminate the need for sanding or abrading. Best results achieved with epoxy resin, but testing is always recommended.
