Abstract

Abstract A method for the testing and selecting of glass cloth suitable for use in the preparation of polyimide resin impregnated composites. The method comprises determining the extractable polyol content of the glass cloth and then selecting glass cloth having an extractable polyol content of from 0.60 to 0.90 percent by weight based on the weight of the glass cloth for use in the preparation of the polyimide resin impregnated composite.
