Composites are heterogeneous materials made of several distinct constituents bonded together, giving rise to better properties. These constituents are generally divided into two main categories: ...

Researchers have created a self-healing composite that is tougher than materials currently used in aircraft wings, turbine blades and other applications—and can repair itself more than 1,000 times.

IACMI Project 3.2 evaluated carbon fiber-reinforced composites infused with a novel epoxy-based resin system to develop structural composite parts with complex geometry to replace metals in ...

Researchers at the AGH University of Krakow in Poland and its Eko-Energia AGH student group have published a study about their approach to lightweight bifacial vehicle integrated PV (VIPV) modules, ...

The standard square beams are produced from graphite and PAN carbon fibres using CompoTech’s innovative automated, robot assisted filament placement technique, which places continuous fibres axially ...

Natural fibers have a rich history of reinforcing materials for over 3,000 years. The renewed interest in natural fiber composites in the last five years is driven by a focus on improving and ...
