Abstract
This article provides information on the thermoplastic resins used as matrix materials for continuous fiber reinforced composites. It focuses on the materials that are suitable for fabrication of structural laminates and used for aerospace applications. The article provides a discussion on the background, categories, characteristics, product forms, properties, cost benefits, and processing techniques of thermoplastic resins. Strategies that have been advanced to deal with impregnation difficulties are also discussed.
