On-line monitoring the prepreg quality in the polymer composite industry continues to be a major emphasis, it will reduce the amount of prepreg manufactured under “outside specifications”. A near-infrared spectroscopy has been implemented for measurement of resin content, pre-curing degree of resin and volatile content during the manufacture of glass/phenolic resin prepreg cloth. The regression method employed was partial least squares (PLS). The optimum models were obtained by selecting different spectral pretreatments and spectral ranges. The determination coefficients (R2) for the resin content, pre-curing degree and volatile content were 98.36, 98.76 and 98.33, respectively. The root mean squares of cross-validation (RMSECV) were 0.364, 0.145 and 0.182 respectively for the resin content, pre-curing degree and volatile content, respectively. The NIR method was applied to monitor the quality of prepreg cloth on line. The results showed that the monitored values were closed to the actual values. The study indicates that the on-line quality analysis of prepreg cloth was realised by using NIR technique.
