NEW YORK, June 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- About Prepreg
Prepreg has a high strength-to-weight ratio, high resistance to corrosion and fatigue, and fire resistance; therefore, it is favored by manufacturers over its metallic counterparts for use in commercial and industrial applications. It is created by pre-impregnating fibers, including glass, carbon, and aramid, onto a matrix material. In the case of thermoplastic prepreg, the matrix materials used are petroleum-based polymers such as polyethylene and polypropylene. In the case of thermoset prepreg, the matrix materials used are resins such as epoxy, bismaleimide, cyanate ester, and phenolic resins.
Technavio's analysts forecast the prepreg market in North America to grow at a CAGR of 10.43% over the period 2015-2019.
