Thermoplastic matrix-based composites produced by resin transfer molding: A review
Résumé
The recycling of thermoset-based composites is challenging. The replacement
of thermosetting resins with thermoplastics is an initial step to address this
issue, together with the use of green reinforcements. Owing to the recent
development of low-viscosity thermoplastic resins, it is possible to produce
thermoplastic matrix composites using the resin transfer molding (RTM) technique,
which was originally conceived for the production of thermosetting
matrix composites. These resins are based on cyclic esters, methyl methacrylate,
and cyclic (butylene terephthalate) oligomers. This review presents the
state-of-the-art works reported on the production of thermoplastic matrix composites
via a thermoplastic RTM (TP-RTM) process, from the in situ polymerization
of the resins through the optimization of the TP-RTM parameters for
the evaluation of the composite properties.
