  • REINFORCEMENT MATERIAL INCLUDING A POROUS LAYER MADE OF A PARTIALLY CROSS-LINKED THERMOPLASTIC POLYMER AND ASSOCIATED METHODS
    Publication number: 20230373131
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a reinforcement material including at least one fiber reinforcement associated on at least one of its faces with a porous layer, the porous layer(s) representing no more than 10% of the total weight of the reinforcement material, preferably from 0.5 to 10% of the total weight of the reinforcement material, and most preferably from 2 to 6% of the total weight of the reinforcement material, characterized in that the porous layer contains a partially cross-linked thermoplastic polymer. Another object of the invention is a precursor material of such a reinforcement material, as well as their preparation method and the methods for manufacturing a preform or a composite part from such materials.
