PPS UD Carbon Prepreg 150gsm Fiber Areal Weight 35% Resin Content 350°C Tg
Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer from Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, we are proud to present our PPS UD carbon prepreg 150gsm fiber areal weight 35% resin content 350°C Tg. This high-performance unidirectional carbon fiber prepreg combines the exceptional thermal stability of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) with the mechanical strength of carbon fiber, making it ideal for demanding applications in aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors. Our product is engineered to deliver consistent quality, precise resin content, and reliable handling properties, backed by over two decades of manufacturing experience since 1998.
This prepreg features a 150gsm fiber areal weight and 35% resin content, providing an optimal balance of strength and processability. With a glass transition temperature (Tg) of 350°C, it offers outstanding thermal resistance, enabling use in high-temperature environments where conventional prepregs may fail. The unidirectional (UD) fiber orientation ensures maximum directional strength, making it perfect for structural components that require high stiffness and low weight.
We manufacture this product under strict quality control, ensuring uniform resin distribution and consistent tack and drape for easy lay-up. Our factory, established in 1998, has an annual export value of US$5-10 million, serving markets across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Oceania. We ship from major ports including Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, and Foshan, ensuring timely delivery worldwide.
Product Features and Benefits

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the recommended cure cycle for this prepreg?
A: Typical cure conditions involve heating to 320-350°C at a rate of 1-3°C/min under pressure (5-10 bar) and holding for 30-60 minutes. However, we recommend consulting our technical data sheet for specific parameters based on your lay-up and thickness. -
Q: Can I use this prepreg without an autoclave?
A: Yes, it can be processed using compression molding or vacuum bagging with a press. For high-quality laminates, autoclave curing is preferred to achieve optimal fiber volume and void content. -
Q: What is the shelf life and how should I store it?
A: The prepreg has a shelf life of 12 months when stored at -18°C or below. Once opened, it should be used within 2-3 weeks if kept sealed at room temperature. Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. -
Q: Is this prepreg compatible with other resins or core materials?
A: The PPS matrix is designed for high-temperature applications and may have limited compatibility with common epoxy adhesives. We recommend using PPS-based adhesives or co-curing with compatible core materials such as polyimide honeycomb or foam. -
Q: Can I order a sample before bulk purchase?
A: Yes, we offer sample rolls (e.g., 1m x 300mm) for evaluation. Please contact our sales team to arrange a sample order. -
Q: What are the mechanical properties of the cured laminate?
A: Typical properties include tensile strength >2000 MPa, tensile modulus >130 GPa, and flexural strength >1500 MPa (depending on fiber type and cure conditions). Detailed data is available upon request. -
Q: Do you offer custom widths or resin content?
A: Yes, we can customize the prepreg width (up to 1200mm) and resin content within a certain range. Please provide your requirements for a quotation. -
Q: How does this PPS prepreg compare to epoxy-based high-temperature prepregs?
A: PPS offers superior thermal stability (Tg up to 350°C vs. typical epoxy of 150-200°C), better chemical resistance, and lower moisture absorption. However, it requires higher processing temperatures and may have higher cost. It is ideal for applications where epoxy cannot meet temperature requirements.
