Presentation Transcript

  1. Arun Matt, Qianyi Zhang, Shawn Strong, Dr. Ryo Amano (Supervisor) Current largeblade manufacturing technology Design and Production of Composite Structures: Thermoplastic Wind Turbine Blades • Thermoset composites • 2 skins and 1 spar assembled through structural bonding • Vacuum infusion or pre-pregging of individual parts

  2. Advantages using Reactive processing of Thermoplast • Higher tensile strength (495 MPa APA-6 vs. 476 MPa for epoxy) • Better impact properties • Do not turn brittle at low temperatures • Unlimited shelf-life of raw materials • Environmental & economic benefits from fully recyclable blades

  3. VARTM Casting of Thermosets
