Durable Composites for Harsh Marine Environments Navy STTR FY2006 Sol No.: Navy STTR FY2006 Topic No.: N06-T021 Topic Title: Durable Composites for Harsh Marine Environments Proposal No.: N064-021-0522 Firm: WebCore Technologies, Inc. 8821 Washington Church Road Miamisburg, Ohio 45342 Contact: Rob Banerjee Phone: (937) 435-2200 Web Site: www.webcoreonline.com Abstract: WebCore proposes to explore the incorporation of newer, tougher resins and nano-fibers into fiber reinforced composites (FRC) in order to provide highly durable, abrasion-resistant materials. WebCore's FRC, TYCOR, is a lightweight, high performance structural material that can be tailored to exacting requirements and complex shapes. Through the use of patented preforming processes and novel infusion processes, WebCore has the unique ability to incorporate normally difficult-to-use resins into TYCOR panels to improve impact properties and damage tolerance.
