Resin flow member for a vacuum assisted resin transfer moulding process

Abstract

The disclosure relates to a resin flow enhancing member, including a cavity with a first opening and a second opening as well as an resin flow adjusting arrangement for changing a resin flow cross section in a resin flow direction from the first opening to the second opening in the resin flow enhancing member by applying vacuum to the second opening. The disclosure further relates to a fiber reinforced plastic laminate including a fiber stack and at least one resin flow enhancing member as well as to a fiber reinforced plastic composite material prepared by using a resin flow enhancing member. The disclosure further relates to a vacuum assisted resin transfer molding process for injecting resin from a resin flow enhancing member into a fiber stack.
