Thermoset Carbon Fiber Prepreg
Thermoset Carbon Fiber Prepreg is an intermediate material in the form of a sheet of carbon fiber impregnated with thermoset matrix resin. There are various types of prepreg such as UD prepreg (unidirectional prepreg), in which carbon
fibers are aligned in one direction, and cloth prepreg, in which carbon fibers are woven into a fabric and impregnated with matrix resin.

Features
Mitsubishi Chemical offers a wide range of prepreg products, including UD prepreg, cloth prepreg, and special prepreg.
For prepreg consisting of carbon fiber and thermoset matrix resin, it is necessary to select the most suitable carbon fiber and resin for the particular application.
Mitsubishi Chemical has developed various of its own thermoset matrix resin to meet the needs of different application, enabling it to offer prepregs of various characteristics, such as rapid curing, heat resistance, and high toughness.
Applications
UD prepreg takes advantage of the anisotropic nature of carbon fiber to greatly expand the range of product design, by placing the necessary prepreg in the right place at the right time.
Cloth prepreg offers excellent drape property, making it well suited to creating shapes that follow the contours of product. Due to its good “designability,” it is also very well suited for exterior applications.
