About this document
9-Meter Thermoplastic Wind Blade Manufacturing by Mehrdad Bor is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes research on manufacturing a 9-meter thermoplastic composite wind turbine blade using vacuum-assisted resin transfer molding. Thermoplastic resins allow for room temperature curing, eliminating the need for heating, and components can be thermally welded instead of using adhesives. This reduces manufacturing costs, cycle times, and enables easier repair compared to traditional thermoset resin blades. The researchers demonstrated infusion and curing of the blade in under 3 hours using
