Method of forming a composite article with a textured surface

A molding process that uses a textured interfacial layer to isolate the surface of a mold (10) from the surface of a composite article produced with the mold (10). A solution (20) is deposited on the mold surface (18) to form the interfacial layer, whose surface (22) opposite the mold (10) is textur...

Zusammenfassung:A molding process that uses a textured interfacial layer to isolate the surface of a mold (10) from the surface of a composite article produced with the mold (10). A solution (20) is deposited on the mold surface (18) to form the interfacial layer, whose surface (22) opposite the mold (10) is textured. The texture of the interfacial layer is then transferred to the surface of the composite article produced with the mold (10). After demolding, the interfacial layer adheres to the article as a protective coating, but can be readily removed from the article to expose an underlying textured surface of the article.
