A carbon fibre epoxy composite laminate containing thermoplastic interleaves has been shown to provide an easy route for the manufacture of an expanded composite mesh. A two-stage shape memory composite using two different interleaf materials has been developed and this has been used to create a mesh that can deploy from the flat state into an expanded state. Creep of one of the interleaf materials, during flattening and deployment, limited the extent of the deployment but a better choice of interleaf materials should overcome this shortcoming.
