  • Publication number: 20160288377
    Abstract: A process for the production of composite components comprising the following steps: providing a moulding core; bringing at least one portion of the moulding core into contact with a polyurethane/polyisocyanurate reaction mixture, where at least for some time during the contact a subatmospheric pressure p1 is applied to at least the exterior of the moulding core. A superatmospheric pressure p2 is applied to at least the exterior of the moulding core when a time t1 has expired after beginning of the contact of the moulding core with the polyurethane/polyisocyanurate reaction mixture and/or a temperature T1 is reached in the polyurethane/polyisocyanurate reaction mixture which makes contact with the moulding core.

  • Publication number: 20140295725
    Abstract: A composite profile comprises: a foam core (1) with opposing frontal faces (2) and a plurality of side faces (3); and a reinforcement fabric (4) which is at least partially in direct contact with at least two adjacent side faces (3). The reinforcement fabric (4) is a woven textile or an at least bidirectionally oriented non-woven textile; the foam core (1) does not or not completely penetrate into the reinforcement fabric (4); and at least on one side face (3) the foam core (1) is exposed. A method of manufacturing comprises the steps of: (I) providing a reinforcement fabric (4), the reinforcement fabric (4) being provided in such a shape as to define at least one upwardly open cavity (1?) adapted to receive a foam (4); and (H) providing a solid or spreadable foam (1) into the at least one cavity (1?) of the reinforcement fabric (4).
