Evaluation of new GFRTP and CFRTP using epsilon caprolactam as matrix fabricated with VaRTM

Thermoplastic resins used as a matrix of fiber reinforced thermoplastics (FRTPs) are composed of high polymers that remain highly viscous even at a higher temperature than their melting points. As a result, they need an even higher temperature, a higher pressure and a longer processing time to allow...
