Abstract

An article, such as a composite tennis racquet frame, is formed by cowinding one or more tows of reinforcement fibers with one or more tows of thermoplastic filaments, and then molding the cowound tow at a temperature and pressure sufficient to melt the thermoplastic and force the thermoplastic between the fibers. Each reinforcement fiber tow has a filament count of 6k or less and having diameters of 30 microns or less. Each thermoplastic fiber tow has a filament count between 20 and 1000, a denier between 50 and 5000, and a zero shear rate viscosity, at or above the melting temperature, in the range of 100 poise to 3000 poise. Preferably, the cowound tow is wrapped with a serving of thermoplastic filaments prior to molding. Cowound tows may be formed into a premold body, such as a sleeve, by braiding, weaving and the like, which is thereafter heated to melt the thermoplastic, consolidated with pressure to impregnate the reinforcing fibers, and form a molded article.
