TenCate to supply prepreg for all-composite aircraft

摘要

TenCate Advanced Composites North America has signed a long term composite materials supply agreement with US-based Kestrel Aircraft. The new, all-composite turboprop Kestrel K-350 will use TenCate's TC275-1 epoxy prepreg system, which has improved hot/wet strength retention and can cure at either 275°F or 350°F. The prepreg can be processed with a freestanding post cure for higher temperature performance.
