| Zusammenfassung: | A method of producing a non-crimp fabric (10) and a non-crimp fabric comprising a layup of fabric plies (12) stitched together by a thread (18), at least part of which is fusible, is provided. The method can include heating the stitched plies (12) to soften or melt the fusible thread (18). The use of fusible thread (18) can act as an in situ binder within the non-crimp fabric (10) and tension created by the unfused stitching may create channels for matrix resin infusion during manufacture. |
