Abstract
A porous material provided with a reactive component capable of reacting with an infusion resin is provided. In addition, a method of producing a wind turbine blade or a part thereof is described, the method including providing a mold containing the porous material, applying an infusion resin into the mold by a vacuum infusion method, in particular vacuum assisted resin transfer molding, and curing the infusion resin. A wind turbine blade or a part thereof obtainable by this method is also provided.
Claims14
A porous material provided with a reactive component capable of reacting with an infusion resin.
A method of producing a wind turbine blade or a part thereof, the method comprising:
- providing a mold comprising a porous material with a reactive component capable of reacting with an infusion resin,
- applying the infusion resin into the mold by a vacuum infusion method, and
- curing the infusion resin.
A method comprising:
- using a porous material for increasing the viscosity of an infusion resin in a vacuum infusion method, wherein the porous material is functionalized with a reactive component capable of reacting with the infusion resin.
