Abstract
Charge packs covering just 40% of the mould can be effectively used to process DFC, without detrimentally affecting void content, fibre distribution and mechanical properties. Tensile stiffness and strength values of 36Â GPa and 320Â MPa are reported for isotropic materials (100% charge coverage), which increase to 46Â GPa and 408Â MPa with flow induced alignment (50% charge coverage) at 50% fibre volume fraction.
