The present invention discloses a manufacturing method of a color decorative plate for an integral bathroom. Firstly, a decorative fiber cloth is immersed and a surfacing material is prepared, wherein the steps include: adding various auxiliaries to an unsaturated polyester resin; uniformly mixing to form a resin paste, wherein the auxiliaries contain an initiator, a mold discharging agent, an accelerator, a coupling agent, a crosslinking monomer and cinnamene; uniformly coating the above resin paste on the decorative fiber cloth; precuring and drying at 105 C. to 130 C. to produce the surfacing material; then compression moulding; feeding a sheet molding compound (SMC) into a mould; and laying the surfacing material on the SMC in the mould for integral compression moulding. In the compression moulding process, a mold cavity is at an upper part and a mold core is at a lower part to prevent decorative patterns from deforming because the decorative fiber cloth is stretched due to the flow of the SMC and to avoid wrinkling the decorative fiber cloth. The SMC is used as a structural layer, and the surfacing material is attached to a surface of the structural layer. The patterns on the surface of a finished product have high clarity and brightness.

Method for manufacturing a stiffened panel of composite materials and a stiffened panel, comprising: a skin (1), and stiffeners (3, 4),
wherein the manufacturing method comprises the following steps: providing a skin (1), making a plurality of through drill holes (6) on the skin (1) located in correspondence with areas where the placement of stiffeners (3, 4) is expected, introducing threaded bolts (5) in the through drill holes (6) such that the head (11) of the threaded bolt (5) remains housed in the skin (1), locating a threaded nut (10) on the free end of the threaded bolts (5), manufacturing the stiffeners (3, 4) such that the threaded bolts (5) and the threaded nut (10) remain embedded in the stiffeners (3, 4).

This invention relates to the production of cured polymeric skin materials. In particular, the invention relates to methods and substrates for the production of skin materials, for example, for use in building, furniture, and as architectural components for example in roofing materials such as roofing tiles, or for brick wall effect materials.

This invention relates to a moulding compound blank, a method for compression moulding the same and the resulting product. The blank comprises a moulding compound comprising a fibrous reinforcement material and a resin material wherein the moulding compound comprises a flow guide (6, 7, 8) located at the surface of the blank for directing flow of the moulding compound within the cavity of the compression mould during compression moulding.

A deicer boot includes an aircraft structure and an outer layer. The outer layer includes a plurality of elastomer fibers and a carbon allotrope material. The carbon allotrope material is aligned with at least one elastomer fiber belonging to the plurality of elastomer fibers. A method of forming a layer of a deicer boot includes aligning a carbon allotrope material with a first elastomer fiber, joining the first elastomer fiber with a plurality of additional elastomer fibers to form a non-woven fiber fabric, and incorporating the non-woven fiber fabric into a sheet.

This compactor includes first rollers having first roller surfaces that press a laminated sheet from the second surface side of a release sheet, the first rollers being disposed separated from each other; and a second roller having a second roller surface that presses the laminated sheet from the second surface side of the release sheet, the second roller being disposed such that the second roller surface faces a gap provided between the first rollers.

The present invention relates to vacuum forming process for moulding a thermoset material and a start-up process for moulding a thermoset material. The present invention also relates to articles produced by the vacuum forming process.

A method is disclosed for recycling broad goods material into a flaked feed material. The broad goods material includes reinforcement fibers and thermoplastic material. The recycling method includes applying heat and pressure to impregnate the reinforcement fibers at a filament level with the thermoplastic material to form an impregnated fiber material. The method also includes cooling the impregnated fiber material, and cutting the cooled impregnated fiber material into flakes to produce the flaked feed material.

A method is provided for producing an SMC component provided with a unidirectional fiber reinforced. The method includes: a) a blank of a unidirectional fiber reinforced is laid on the tool surface of a lower part of a preform tool, b) the preform tool is closed by moving a preform upper part and the preform lower part of the preform tool towards each other, thus forming the unidirectional fiber reinforced; c) the unidirectional fiber reinforced is pre-cured in the preform tool by heating; d) the removed unidirectional fiber reinforced together with at least one nondirectional SMC semi-finished product are laid in a press tool, onto the tool surface of a press tool lower part; e) the press tool is closed, wherein a press tool upper part and the press tool lower part of the press tool are moved towards each other to mold together the unidirectional fiber reinforced and the at least one non-directional SMC semi-finished product; and f) the produced SMC component is fully cured by heating.
