Systems and methods for delivering color and other physical properties to fibers, braids, laminate composites, and other articles

摘要

A method of delivering a dye to a fiber, braid, or composite material comprises: applying the dye to a delivery paper to produce a dye transfer paper; Placing the colored delivery medium in contact with the inflatable rig or an inflatable structure, such as a metal tube, with the fiber, braid or composite material; Applying at least one of heat, pressure or vacuum to inject the dye into the fiber, braid or composite material may be used to provide a colored fiber, braid or composite having minimal changes to the physical properties of the fiber, And creating a material.
