Discover how composite repair systems hold up under extreme heat. This white paper, presented at the 2025 PPIM Conference, explores the performance of carbon fiber-based composites at temperatures up to 210°F. It highlights how both operating and cure temperatures impact critical properties like tensile strength and glass transition temperature (Tg), offering insights into how to ensure long-term reliability in high-temperature environments.

Standards don’t tell the full story—this research fills the gap. With limited industry guidance for high-heat applications, this study shows how proper curing and post-curing can significantly enhance composite performance. Whether you’re maintaining pipelines or industrial infrastructure, this paper offers practical data to help engineers make more informed repair decisions.
