PP230 Nylon 66 Peel Ply Red Tracer (1520mm)

Aerofilm® PP230 is a high specification 85gsm PA66 (Nylon 66) peel ply offering higher tear-strength and operating temperatures and an easier release from cured laminate compared to our standard polyester peel ply. It is identifiable in the Easy Composites range by its red tracer lines.

PP230 PA66 high temperature peel ply is generally specified for aerospace/prepregs applications and large scale wind energy projects. It has a very high maximum operating temperature of 230°C making it suitable for use even with high cure temperature prepregs.

During production, the nylon peel-ply is rinsed and heat-treated to eradicate any surface contamination.

Typisch gebruik

PP230 is recommended for any prepreg curing requiring a peel ply (for example where secondary bonding will be undertaken) although care should be taken to ensure that prepreg laminates are not 'dried out' by the peel ply which will absorb some resin during cure.

PP230 is also recommended for applications where peel ply removal is proving difficult, including some epoxy resin infusion projects. Although not release coated, PA66 does provide a slightly improved release from the cured laminate and the added strength of the peel ply makes tear removal more consistent.

• Prepegs (particularly aerospace, wind energy and tooling)
• Resin infusion (where polyester peel ply removal is proving difficult)

Kopen

This peel-ply is available to buy in a folded 5lm pack, by the linear metre (10lm+) or in wholesale 100lm rolls. Please choose how you would like to purchase from the drop-down list above.

The material itself is 1.52m wide meaning that each linear metre is equal to 1.52sqm.

The 1.52m width of the peel-ply means that (except for the folded pack) it is supplied in a 160cm long box. Please be aware that this 'oversize' package can result in higher transport costs for some international destinations. The 5m pack is folded into a small package which avoids this 'oversize' charge.

Verdere informatie

PP180 is a tightly woven white fabric with red 'tracer' lines, still visible after wet-out, to reduce the risk of the peel ply being accidentally left on the cured laminate. In the Easy Composites range, alternative grades of peel ply can be identified by different tracer colours.

PP230 can be used like any conventional peel ply and is most commonly positioned directly against the prepreg laminate or reinforcement.
