The unidirectional tapes can be further processed into fabrics. Depending on the tape width, wide fabrics or finer fabrics can be created, which have different properties. By using UD thermoplastic tapes, this type of fabric is already fully impregnated and can be further processed directly.

Study: Weaved hybrid sheets (GF-CF) compared to organosheet

• Results of three-point bending test (DIN EN ISO 14125)
• TAFNEX™ CF-PP UD can be woven and combined with glass fibre tape to hybrid sheets
• Due to the low ondulation UD based fabrics have higher mechanical properties than roving based fabrics
