PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
LINCORE® PLA FF is a fabric made of LINCORE® roving (commingled flax and PLA filaments).
Consolidation is done by heating above melting temperature of PLA matric (170°C-200°C) and applying a low pressure (1-30 bars), before a cooling step under pressure.
The moulding can be realized by :
diaphragm (1 to 8 bars)- Thermo compression (10 to 200 bars) - Sandwich thermo compression (1 to 5 bars).
PRODUCT APPLICATIONS
LINCORE® PLA FF is mainly used for the following applications :
Automotive, Marine, Trucks, Sports & Leisure, Building, Urban & Industrial Parts, Energy.
