The COMFIL material combines the high localized strength of carbon composite with the modeling properties of thermoplastics. Available in unidirectional and bidirectional, the carbon fibers are interwoven with a revolutionary thermoplastic fiber that allows the material to be heated and formed at lower temperatures. This thermoplastic material also acts as a high strength matrix for active performance and flexibility.
As the matrix is solvent free you get all the benifits from a lealthy working envionment. Consolidation of a brace using COMFIL is done in an oven under vacuum using the TFC technique. Since the material is not cured with a chemical reaction the final product can be reformed to ensure a perfect fit to the patient. If you want more information regarding how to work with this material, please download the manual below.
