heal.abstract	A dielectric and an electrical monitoring systems have been developed for the real-time sensing of composite manufacturing processes of reactive thermoplastic materials. In addition, optimised durable non-intrusive interdigitated dielectric sensors have been designed and manufactured for the sensing of resin arrival, viscosity changes as well as material transformation and crystallisation. The dielectric sensors receive the appropriate AC stimuli while the electrical sensors receive DC signal from the monitoring system and their feedback are recorded and processed by the system providing real-time material state-based information (viscosity, degree of reaction etc.). The monitoring systems and the sensors were used successfully to monitor the infusion of glassfibre with CBT oligomers and their reaction to form PBT at the end of the process.	en
