The stitch-bonded, multi-axial construction of V2’s non-crimp fabrics prevent the degradation of fiber strength, providing superior structural integrity and longer-lasting performance. Straight line construction promotes higher tensile strength, maintains the fabric’s structural integrity, preserves its mechanical qualities (such as drape or stiffness), reduces lay-up time (faster wet-out) and cost (higher fiber volumes).
Additional features of non-crimp fabrics include:
- Stronger, structurally efficient fabrics
- Improved mechanical properties
- Preserved mechanical qualities, such as drape and density
- Long-term fatigue resistance
- Outstanding flexural strength
- Greater impact resistance
- High stiffness-to-thickness ratio
- High fiber volume
- Predictable laminate properties
