TeXtreme® - Lightweight Carbon Fabric

TeXtreme® Spread Tow Fabric (STF) increases the performance and reduces the weight of your composites. The material is pliable and easy to handle when forming and cutting.

In the TeXtreme® biaxial fabric, the spread tapes are woven at an angle of ± 45°. The fabric lies very flat and shows only a low ondulation (fiber deflection), which makes better use of the properties of the fibers. Torsion layers can be laminated without waste.

Processing in all common processes such as hand laminating, pressing, vacuum injection. Generally high fibre contents are achieved.

The specified tissue weight increases by the binder to about 9 g/m².

Key benefits of TeXtreme®:

• Reduced weight by 20 % or more
• Increased mechanical performance
• Easy to handle and cut due to a stable structure

More Information:
Storing: Dry and below 30 °C
UV: No sensitivity
Shelf life: No limitation
EP-Binder: 18 °C softening takes place (improved processing at room temperature)

Please note:
The manufacturer (OXEON) informed us on request that they have already made great progress in quality in recent years, but unfortunately due to the extremely complicated manufacturing process it is still not possible to deliver consistently first-class quality.  
The fibre tapes are not absolutely clean and evenly spread, but this is not a disadvantage for purely technical applications. Unfortunately this fabric is not or only partially suitable for optical applications. Occasionally weaving errors may occur. These are interrupted fibre tapes which were then joined together by the manufacturer using adhesive tape.
Unfortunately, we cannot select the quality and/or cut out such faulty areas. The manufacturer expressly points out that such irregularities do not constitute errors and are not grounds for complaint.
