Abstract: The present invention relates to vacuum forming process for moulding a thermoset material and a start-up process for moulding a thermoset material. The present invention also relates to articles produced by the vacuum forming process.

Abstract: The present invention is concerned with moulding materials for use in the formation of composites and is particularly concerned with phenolic composites. More specifically, the present invention is concerned with phenolic resin materials which can be used without the need to add catalyst materials, and which therefore do not suffer as readily as known compositions from discolouration.

Abstract: The invention relates to a modular building (2), to be assembled in various sizes and in various environments, having a generally triangular transverse sectional profile, wherein the modular building comprises a double sloping roof (6) over the generally triangular transverse sectional profile, and wherein the one or more double sloping roof panels comprise composite panel material.
