With increases in electromagnetic pollution and the wide use of commercial products based on electronic devices that function in different wavelength ranges, there is a growing interest in ...

When reviewing the pressure vessel certification tests prescribed by the applicable norms, many of the tests are significantly influenced by the prop­erties and proper processing of the epoxy matrix ...

To make epoxy-graphene nanocomposites, the graphene nanosheets are commonly mixed homogeneously with the epoxy matrix. However, one of the problems that bedevils these nanocomposites is the issue of ...

The matrix binds the fiber reinforcement, transfers loads between fibers, gives the composite component its net shape and determines its surface quality. A composite matrix may be a polymer, ceramic, ...

Danish researchers have developed a chemical process that can disassemble the epoxy composite of wind turbine blades – and simultaneously extract intact glass fibres as well as one of the epoxy ...

Naturally, the importance of high performance and cost-effectiveness cannot be overstated when designing structural components for aerospace, marine, civil, automotive, and other such industries.

Danish scientists have found a chemical procedure for disassembling the epoxy composite of wind turbine blades while extracting unbroken glass fibers and one of the epoxy resin’s original building ...
