In a preferred embodiment, a composite panel with a smooth outer surface, ready for painting with or without addition of primer, may be created by constructing a panel layup assembly upon a mold, the panel layup assembly including a composite panel having a core and a resin formulation, and a release film between the mold and the composite panel, where a smooth release surface of the release film is in contact with the composite panel upon construction; initiating curing of the composite panel at a first temperature within a lowermost ten percent of a curing temperature range of the resin formulation; continuing curing of the composite panel at a second temperature above the lowermost ten percent of the curing temperature range; and completing curing of the composite panel at a third temperature below the second temperature.

An electrically isolated socket may include a drive body, a driven body, and a body portion. The driven body may be made of first metallic material and having a driven end configured to receive a fastener. The drive body may be made of a second metallic material and having a drive end configured to receive a protrusion of a driving tool. The body portion may over-mold substantially all portions of the drive body and the driven body other than the drive end and the driven end, respectively. The drive end of the drive body and the driven end of the driven body may face away from each other, and the drive body and driven body each include axial grooves. The axial grooves of the drive body each extend substantially perpendicular to an annular groove formed in the drive body from the annular groove formed in the drive body to the drive end, and the axial grooves of the driven body each extend substantially perpendicularly to an annular groove formed in the driven body from the annular groove formed in the driven body to the driven end.

A method of manufacturing a boat hull comprising: forming a foam mold of a predetermined shape and size from one or more pieces of foam; cutting, into said foam, at least one-channel running in a longitudinal or a lateral direction within the foam; and coating said foam with at least one layer of reinforcing fiber and resin.

The present invention relates to a multilayer composition comprising a surface layer comprising a thermoplastic polymer A and a substrate layer comprising a polymeric composite material based thermoplastic (meth)acrylic matrix and a fibrous material as reinforcement. The multilayer composition is suitable for mechanical or structured parts or articles with a decorative surface aspect The present invention concerns also a manufacturing process for multilayer mechanical or structured parts or articles and three-dimensional mechanical or structured parts.

A fiber-reinforced polymer composition that comprises a polymer matrix that contains a propylene polymer is provided. The polymer matrix constitutes from about 20 wt. % to about 90 wt. % of the composition, and the composition further comprises a plurality of long reinforcing fibers that are distributed within the polymer matrix, wherein the fibers constitute from about 10 wt. % to about 60 wt. % of the composition. Further, the composition also comprises a stabilizer system comprising a sterically hindered phenol antioxidant, phosphite antioxidant, and thioester antioxidant.

The present embodiments generally describe a monolithic, e.g., integral, box unit and methods of manufacturing monolithic box units. The monolithic box unit has a ring portion and a body portion, both of which are molded and set simultaneously. The method proceeds with filling a female oriented cavity with a Polymer mixture, allowing both the ring portion and body portion to fill and cure at the same time. Once ejected from the cavity, the entire unit can be trimmed and then add hardware and cover to complete the box.

The invention relates to a process for manufacturing a plastic-metal hybrid part by plastic overmolding on a metal surface via nano-molding technology (NMT), wherein the moldable plastic material is a polymer composition comprising thermoplastic polyamide, or a thermoplastic polyester, or a blend thereof, and boron silicon glass fibers. The invention also relates to a plastic-metal hybrid part, obtainable by said process, wherein a metal part is overmolded by a polymer composition comprising thermoplastic polyamide, or a thermoplastic polyester, or a blend thereof, and boron silicon glass fibers.
