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.

Hydrogen cyanide-free, carbon-negative drop-in for carbon fiber production is found to be chemically identical to oil- and ...

Most people are aware that plastic waste is a problem. Almost all types of plastics that we use in our everyday lives are derived from fossil sources. When they end up in the environment, they cause ...

Composite materials are engineered by fusing different materials, typically consisting of a matrix (a polymer, metal, or ceramic) and a reinforcement (such as fibers, particles, or flakes) that ...

Researchers have found in a new study that flowable short fiber–reinforced resin composite demonstrated significantly higher ...

Researchers from the National University of Defense Technology have developed a novel composite fiber Bragg grating using femtosecond laser technology, which effectively suppresses harmful Raman ...

When crude oil is processed, a lot of grungy byproducts are left over. A new study indicates that a couple of those substances can be used to make low-cost carbon fibers, which could in turn find use ...

Hartzell’s 5-blade composite propeller reduces aircraft weight by around 20 pounds total by using carbon fiber construction ...

In Ji’nan 110KV Liu Chang Shan Road West Extension line project, the conventional steel core cable has been replaced by a carbon fiber composite core materials cable wire. This was the first time for ...

Launched in 2017, Startup Booster has been organised in three different regions (Europe, USA, and Asia) and has already ...
