Epoxy profile Panex® 35

carbon fiberflatfor the automotive industry

Zoltek’s Pultruded Profiles are pre-cured, thick-ply carbon fiber laminates for structural reinforcement applications. Available in a variety of thicknesses and complex shapes, these pultruded parts deliver optimized properties with high fiber volumes, nearly zero void content, and locked-in filament alignment. Panex® 35 carbon fiber tows are fed into our proprietary impregnation and curing process that creates smooth carbon fiber laminates that provide efficient laydown when building thickness. The specific fiber alignment achieved with pultrusion delivers consistently better overall properties in laminates than any other composite manufacturing process. Depending on the end application, these pultruded profiles are typically produced with a thermoset epoxy or vinyl ester resin in a proprietary low-cost, high-throughput process.
