AFC materials are an effective solution for releasing composite parts. They reduce maintenance costs and down time related to the resurfacing and repair of damaged and worn molds. In addition, they impart an extremely smooth surface on molded wind turbine blades (shown below) due to their concise PTFE surface structure.
This provides optimal release, prolongs the life of the liner, and protects the mold from contact with resin.
