A textile substrate made from reinforcing fibers for the production of composite-material preforms, Including an unidirectional composite consisting of at least one flat layer of multifilament reinforcing yarns arranged alongside and parallel to one another and joined by transverse threads, whereby a nonwoven of thermoplastic polymer material is arranged on the at least one flat layer of multifilament reinforcing yarns and is adhesively bonded to the flat layer of multifilament reinforcing yarns. The textile substrate wherein the transverse threads have a core/sheath structure with a first component forming the sheath and a second component forming the core, wherein the first component has a lower melting point than the second component, the first component is a fusible thermoplastic polymer material and the multifilament reinforcing yarns arranged alongside one another are joined together via the first component of the transverse threads by meltbonding.

A multiaxial fabric resin base material includes a multiaxial fabric base material laminate impregnated with a thermosetting resin (B), the multiaxial fabric base material laminate including fiber bundle sheets layered at different angles, the fiber bundle sheets including unidirectionally aligned fiber bundles stitched with stitching yarns composed of a thermoplastic resin (A), the multiaxial fabric base material laminate being penetrated in the thickness direction by other bodies of the stitching yarns, and being stitched with the other bodies of the stitching yarns such that the yarns reciprocate at predetermined intervals along the longitudinal direction, the thermoplastic resin (A) constituting the stitching yarns having a softening point, the softening point being higher than the resin impregnation temperature of the thermosetting resin (B).

Woven fabrics are formed from high tenacity fibers or tapes that are loosely interwoven with adhesive coated filaments, to composite articles formed therefrom, and to a continuous process for forming the composite articles.

According to the present invention, the curling or lifting of webs that occurs during the production nonwoven fabrics, and wrinkles that form on the surface of nonwoven fabrics are prevented. Also, the webs can be easily taken off without making grip stronger than necessary. The present invention pertains to an industrial fabric formed by weaving warp and weft, wherein an embossed pattern having a concavo-convex shape is formed in the vicinity of the apex of a knuckle portion exposed on the surface side of the warp and/or weft. In particular, the industrial fabric is characterized in that the warp and/or weft having the embossed pattern are plastic monofilaments.

A composite structure is fabricated using a preform comprising a stack of unidirectional prepreg plies that are stitched together. During curing of the prepreg, the stitches melt and dissolve.

A method for manufacturing a preform for producing a part made of composite material with an unchangeable final shape includes supplying a triaxial non-woven textile comprising a layer of fibers orientated in a first direction, a layer of fibers orientated in a second direction, a layer of fibers orientated in a third direction, and seams extending parallel to each other and forming sheaths for the circumferential fibers, arranging the textile on an element of unchangeable shape by placing the seams parallel to the circumferential direction of the element, and sliding the circumferential fibers into the sheaths so that the textile is in continuous contact with the element.
