ABSTRACT
NASA Marshall has developed a technology that combines a film/adhesive laydown module with fiber placement
technology to enable the processing of composite prepreg tow/tape and films, foils, or adhesives on the same placement
machine. The deve!opment of this technology grew out of NASA’s need for lightweight, permeation-resistant cryogenic
propellant tanks.
