18 PRIMETEX ZB FABRICS In many end products it is desirable to have a lower crimp fabric to reduce resin rich areas. Hexcel’s PrimeTex ZB finishing process for carbon fabrics will give you a more uniform spread where the filaments in each tow are spread out creating a thinner and more closed fabric that can give you better mechanicals and less porosity in a composite as well as a uniform cosmetic appearance. PrimeTex ZB can also be used to lower the mass in a composite where lighter weight is the key characteristic. We have the capability to provide this technology from both our US and European facilities. To understand the PrimeTex ZB process, the following chart will show the same style woven with a variety of fibers, the fabric closure as it comes off the loom, and the fabric closure after going through the PrimeTex ZB process:
