'carbon fiber layers had epoxy already impregnated in the Fabric'
EZ, it's called 'pre-preg'.
the CF prepreg for the 787 is made by a company called Toray Composites and they have a large plant next to the Fredricksburg WA boeing plant.
I know someone there; when I asked about buying some 'that fell off the truck' he laughed hysterically. Seems there's a real shortage of the stuff and they need every sq.in. they can crank out.
