A flow medium for assisting a resin to be transferred into a mold accommodating a layered structure of reinforced material is provided. The flow medium is configured such that when the resin is cured the flow medium becomes incorporated within a final composite component comprising the reinforced material embedded within the transferred and cured resin. A semifinished product comprising such a flow medium is provided and a method for producing a composite component by utilizing such a semifinished product is also provided.

Degradable flow medium for resin transfer molding processes

An apparatus for degassing of gaseous components from at least one curable material, particularly a curable material for building a composite part, for example, a rotor blade for a wind turbine, is provided in an embodiment herein. The apparatus includes at least one degassing chamber having at least one inlet for introducing a curable material for building a composite part, the curable material containing gaseous components into the degassing chamber and at least one outlet for removing a degassed curable material from the degassing chamber and at least one mechanical splitting means adapted to mechanically split up gaseous components contained within the curable material so as to release the gaseous components from the curable material.

Apparatus and method for degassing

A casting apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises a resin overflow container for use in casting processes, comprising: a curing accelerator for a resin in the overflow container. The resin overflow container may include a compartment arranged within the overflow container. The compartment may be adapted to release the curing accelerator after the overflow container has been at least partly filled with resin. The apparatus may also include a mold; and a drain connecting the mold and the overflow container or being part of an overflow container outlet for drawing off resin of the overflow container.

Method of accelerating the curing process in resin overflow systems for the use in casting processes

A method of accelerating a curing process in resin overflow systems for use in casting processes includes the step of adding a curing accelerator for the resin into the resin overflow system. In addition, a resin overflow container and a compartment with a curing accelerator for use in casting processes are provided.
