Industry Insights: Why Dry Process May Be Your Best Composite Epoxy Solution

Leave a Comment

When it comes to composite manufacturing, you can choose from many materials and methods, each with unique advantages. Among the choices, two techniques stand out: the dry process and pre-impregnated (or pre-preg) process. Understanding the differences between the two will help you settle on the most effective way to bring your project to life.

Here, we’re comparing the dry process versus pre-preg to shed light on their characteristics and applications. From cost efficiency to customization to performance, you’ll learn that the dry process is often the best composite epoxy solution. 

What’s the difference? Dry Process vs. Pre-preg Solutions.

Dry process and pre-preg solutions are two common methods for applying epoxy resin to fabric substrates. Each method comes with its own characteristics and applications.

Dry Process

In the dry process, a raw carbon fiber tow or fabric is loaded into a mold and epoxy resin is used to saturate the substrate. The resin then cures, bonding the fibers together to create a solid composite structure.

Characteristics

  • Requires separate handling and application of resin and dry fibers
  • Offers flexibility and customization in material selection and layup techniques
  • Can reduce material waste and enhance performance
  • More cost-effective and compatible with automation compared to pre-preg solutions

Pre-preg Solutions

Pre-preg refers to a composite material where reinforcing fibers are pre-impregnated with a resin before use. This pre-impregnation is typically done by the manufacturer, who applies a precise amount of resin onto the fibers and then cures them to a partially cured state. The pre-preg materials are then stored in a freezer until they are ready to be used. When heated, the resin cures, bonding the fibers together to create a solid composite structure.

  • Characteristics:
    • Reinforcing fibers are already impregnated with resin, simplifying handling and processing
    • Requires freezer storage to prevent premature curing
    • Offers consistency in material properties and performance
    • Typically more expensive than the dry process due to additional processing and handling

Both dry process and pre-preg solutions have their advantages, and the choice between them depends on cost, production volume, and performance specifications. The dry process offers several benefits that make it the best choice for most applications:

  • Cost Efficiency:

The dry process involves lower material costs compared to pre-preg solutions. Pre-preg materials are often more expensive due to additional processing and handling.

  • Customization:

The dry process allows for easier and faster customization and flexibility in material and techniques. You can tailor the resin type, fiber orientation, and layering technique to meet specific requirements and optimize the finished product. 

  • Reduced Material Waste:

 With pre-preg solutions, unused or excess material can lead to waste due to limited shelf life, resin wasted in pattern cuts, and storage requirements. In dry processing, the fibers and resin are combined in the mold as needed, which reduces waste and limits your environmental impact.

  • Improved Handling and Storage:

Dry materials are easier to handle and store than pre-preg solutions, which require storage in freezers. This simplifies logistics and reduces the risk of material degradation during transportation or storage.

  • Faster Production Times:

Pre-preg solutions require additional processing steps and curing time, while dry processing offers faster cycle times and increased efficiency. The dry process allows you to streamline production without compromising quality.

Leave a Comment

Stronger yet lighter weight. More flexible yet more durable. Thermally insulated. Versatile. And chemical or corrosion-resistant on top of it all. If the part or component you need must be some, all, or even more of these, your best solution is an epoxy composite. 

If you need it fast and done to your exacting standards, the only solution is to partner with Copps.

Here, collaboration with our customers is king. Short lead times and fast turnarounds are to be expected. And access to our entire team, from service to formulation, to support after you have what you need – is guaranteed.  

And because we service a wide range of markets outside of the epoxy composites world, we’re able to connect you with different expert perspectives and new ideas. The kind other sources simply can’t provide.

Reinforcements: Putting it All Together

Your job, your product, your needs are unique. What’s not unique is the fact that epoxy resin alone typically doesn’t provide enough structural integrity to meet the reliability and durability you need.

We cater our epoxy development to create a low-density material with a high strength-to-weight ratio to meet the needs of diverse applications specifically with each of these types of reinforcements:

  • Carbon fiber
  • Fiberglass
  • Aramid
  • Natural fibers: jute, flax, and kenaf
  • Exotic fibers: boron, basalt
  • Particulate fillers: ceramic, silica, metal

Properties and Advantages of Different Reinforcements 

Each reinforcement material offers its own unique characteristics and benefits. The best material for your specific application depends on its intended use. Some of the most common properties reinforcements offer include:

  • Impact resistance
  • Stiffness
  • High strength-to-weight ratio

Not Just a Manufacturing Process. Your Process.

For every type of process, there’s a set of variables that come into play – as well as the desired outcome. That’s why we develop products not just for the process type, but for the individual customer variation within each process type. That’s what makes Copps unique.

Through customer collaboration, meticulous attention to detail and precision, we develop products for all of these processes:

  • Vacuum Bagging: An open molding technique (including Wet Bagging) that places mechanical pressure on a laminate during its cure cycle. Designed to achieve higher-than-normal properties of Hand Layup without the technical challenges of VIP.
  • Hand Layup: The simplest composite molding method available where fiber reinforcements are wet out by hand and manually positioned into a mold.
  • High-Pressure Resin Transfer Molding (HPRTM): Rapidly becoming popular in the automotive, industrial, and agricultural industries, this is a high-output process where dry reinforcement fabrics are placed into metal tooling inside of a high-tonnage hydraulic press. Resin is then injected under very high pressures for precise part geometry and repeatability. It can also be automated in a 5-step process.
  • Light Resin Transfer Molding (LRTM): A closed-mold process similar to resin transfer molding where both the A and B molds are made of composites. This technology is frequently applied in production of boats and water equipment but has infinite possibilities beyond, including car body elements, trailers, aircraft, and more.
  • Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding Process (VTRM): Another variation of RTM, this too is a closed-mold manufacturing process. Unlike LRTM, the top portion of a mold tool is replaced with a flexible vacuum bag, and vacuum only, no injection, is used to assist in resin flow. Currently most used in composite production where only one part of the laminate is visible.
  • Vacuum Infusion Process (VIP): A low production-level, closed-mold process with a single-sided tool that is loaded with dry fabrics. A flexible film is then used to apply full vacuum to the part and the resin is drawn into the reinforcement through the vacuum applied. Popular infusion resin types include epoxy, polyester, and vinyl ester.
  • Filament Winding: The process of winding resin-impregnated strands of fiber around a rotating mandrel to create a composite structure. Creates high-fiber loading with good directional strength for extremely strong composite products.
  • Pultrusion: A high throughput process for making straight solid shapes where dry fibers are dipped in resin and pulled through a heated metal die creating the part profile and curing in one step. Best suited for high-volume, single-direction reinforced products like rods, poles, trim, flat panels, and more.

Regardless of the method to suit your process, our quality control and testing are vital to ensure the final product will meet the required standards.
