Low-pressure low-temperature molding process

Abstract

Use of expanding rubber mandrel allows for bonding of graphite/epoxy laminated parts in oven instead of expensive autoclave. Heavy-duty two-piece aluminum mold limits deflection. Manipulation of resin contact by precise control of mandrel-generated pressure eliminates complex bleeder system.
