ACG will exhibit its VTM and MTM Series prepregs. ACG VTM260 Series prepregs offer ease of handling in the workshop, long freezer out life and controlled flow combined with a broad processing window  and a 65° C low temperature initial cure or reduced total cycle.

Process innovations such as ZPREG partial impregnation technology and supporting range of surface plies and adhesives have further enhanced the range, making VTM260 series one of the most user-friendly prepreg systems available.

VTM267, a new addition to the range, offers improved workshop handling through reduced temperature sensitivity and controlled tack levels. The flow profile of VTM267 improves fibre wet out, thereby reducing void levels, improving laminate quality, making it particularly suited to the partial impregnation of heavier reinforcement fabrics.

For applications where the flexible cure profile of the VTM system is not required, two new 80 to 120°C curing variants, MTM57-2 and MTM57-3, offer the same enhancements to the Group’s already successful MTM57 prepreg, which has proved popular with spar makers.
