  text: The degree of crosslinking in unidirectional prepreg materials was investigated
    using differential scanning calorimetry to assess their curing behavior and thermal
    characteristics. To complement these measurements with a non-destructive, in-situ
    method, the propagation properties of guided acoustic waves in cured carbon fibre-reinforced
    epoxy plates were analysed. Correlations between the degree of crosslinking and
    acoustically determined mechanical properties were drawn to enable a future non-destructive
    evaluation approach.
