The pultrusion process has been in existence for several years, being utilized primarily for unidirectional glass fiber-resin composite fabrication. Recently, a number of pultruded shapes have been fabricated containing high modulus graphite fiber reinforcement. The resulting polyester resin pultruded shapes exhibit composite flexural properties only slightly lower than comparable unidirectional graphite/epoxy composites fabricated by press-molding. Other properties, applications and economic advantages of pultruded graphite/polyester composites are presented.
