Abstract

A method of forming a fiber-reinforced, glass or glass-ceramic, elongated composite is described wherein several multifiber lengths are impregnated with matrix material, woven or twisted to form a fabric network, the impregnating matrix material softened, and the network subjected to a stretching action along the central axis of the fiber network to collapse the network and consolidate it to a solid composite.
