DOI: 10.1177/0892705718804580
Abstract: In thick thermoplastic composite laminates, nonuniform temperature and cooling rate distribution arises in the through-thickness direction during cost-effective high-rate manufacturing processes. Annealing is often carried out after molding to homogenize degree of crystallinity (DOC) and… read more here.
