Abstract

Abstract Glass fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polymer composite sheets are formed using semicrystalline polymers that have their glass transition temperature above room temperature and may be cold formed, i.e., shaped in a cold mold when preheated outside the mold. Glass-reinforced low molecular weight polyethylene terephthalate, or blends thereof, may be shaped in a cold mold, and exhibit excellent performance.
