Market Definition
Prepreg (pre-impregnated composite fibers) refers to advanced composite materials in which a reinforcing fiber (such as carbon, glass, or aramid) is pre-impregnated with a thermoset or thermoplastic resin. These materials are partially cured to facilitate handling, storage, and shaping before final curing during the manufacturing process. Prepregs are known for their superior strength-to-weight ratio, durability, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility. Due to these properties, prepregs are widely used in high-performance applications across industries such as aerospace, automotive, wind energy, sports equipment, and electronics. The market includes various product types like carbon fiber prepreg, glass fiber prepreg, and aramid prepreg, available in different resin systems such as epoxy, phenolic, and BMI.
