Graphene-reinforced nylon filaments surpass carbon fiber in strength
Bold statement: Carbon fibre may have met its match and it’s called graphene. Recent advancements in additive manufacturing are redrawing the mechanical limits of polymer composites, in particular, ...
How do you decide on the “right” fastener type for a component or assembly involving composite and plastic materials in a time-efficient way? To define which materials and concepts a fastener type is ...
An extruded wood polymer composite (WPC) green body that has then been carbonized into a porous preform and then processed via silicon melt infiltration into a high-performance silicon carbide (SiC) ...
Research from University of Sharjah finds that geometry, not material strength, is the key variable in polymer rebar ...
Wood, steel, and concrete are commonly used materials for power poles. However, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) offers a relatively lightweight, safe, and resilient alternative, which also offers a ...
