TFP are pleased to announce that we will be exhibiting at JEC Europe, March 11-13 on stand C47 in hall 7.3.

We will be showcasing our latest developments including the world's lightest nonwoven carbon veil at 2 g/m². This and our other ultra lightweight materials are the ideal candidates for use as a carrier or support for fragile materials or adhesive films, facilitating uniform application of the adhesive with a minimum associated weight addition.

New developments also include an extended range of lightweight thermoplastic veils including PEEK, Nylon, Polyester, PEI & PPS. Our thermoplastic veils can improve the fracture toughness of a composite by reducing microcrack propagation when incorporated as interlaminar layers.

We will also be exhibiting our Optiveil, Optimat and Tecnofire materials which are specifically designed for the surface engineering of composites. Optiveil™ and Optimat are the ideal choice for composite surfacing solutions.

The exceptional uniformity of fibre dispersion and resin uptake delivers a high quality surface finish whilst fibre type can be selected to impart additional functionality such as conductivity, EMI shielding and corrosion & abrasion resistance. Tecnofire also provides surface functionality, delivering highly effective passive fire protection for composites without compromising the integrity of the structure.
