TFC Thermo Formable Composite
from COMFIL
TFC combines the high localized stretngth of carbon composite with the modeling properties of plastic. Unilateral and bilateral carbon fibers are interwoven with a revolutionary thermoplastic fiber that allows the material to be formed at lower temperatures.
The thermoplastic material also acts as a high-strength matrix for active performance and flexibility.
TFC is custom formed to your mold with a heat gun and layup is then placed into a standard oven at 430F for 30 minutes under vacuum to cure for an individual orthotic or prosthetic solution.
TFC is also fully heat remoldable, and allows fit to be adjusted just like plastic. The material comes in unilateral or bilateral reinforcement for different structural properties with two different thicknesses and can be cut cimply with scissors. The vacuum chamber, supplies and oven adaptations are also available.
