METHOD OF MANUFACTURING REINFORCED WOOD COMPOSITES

The present invention is method of making a fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) used to reinforce a wood composite member, in which the FRP may be consolidated and substantially cured at the same time as the wood-wood bond lines. The method of manufacturing partially cured FRP composites of the present i...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The present invention is method of making a fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) used to reinforce a wood composite member, in which the FRP may be consolidated and substantially cured at the same time as the wood-wood bond lines. The method of manufacturing partially cured FRP composites of the present invention includes drawing fiber reinforcements in tension, combining the reinforcements into a dry fiber reinforcement layer, wetting the dry fiber reinforcement layer with a wet resin to form a wetted fiber reinforcement layer, and partially curing the wetted fiber reinforcement layer to form a partially cured FRP composite for consolidation and substantially simultaneous curing an uncured wood composite. The method of manufacturing reinforced wood composites of the present invention includes the aforementioned steps plus the steps of introducing the partially cured FRP composite into an uncured wood composite laminate, consolidating the FRP-wood laminate, and curing the consolidated laminate to form a reinforced wood composite.
