Hi All
I've used Airpad several times for tooling and curing applications using prepreg in the laminate to add a bit of strength, however I now have a component that needs some impact protection and durability for a sports application.
I have used Kraibon material for such an application as you can incorporate it into the laminate, but we dont have any material in stock so I was hoping to use airpad instead although im scared it might delam.
Has anyone used Airpad inside a laminate? If so did it work and how many plies of carbon did you have on the surface layer?
Cheers
Gaz
