Carbon fiber reinforced polymer composites (CFPC) have been used in additive
manufacturing (AM) due to both the high-strength-to-weight and superior-stiffness-to-weight …

Additive manufacturing (AM) is evolving from rapid prototyping to production of structural
components. The widespread application of AM demands a high level of mechanical …

Natural fiber composites offer an advantage in terms of weight saving for many automotive
applications; however, many natural fiber composites lack properties to justify substitution for …

The presented study was focused on the development of a sustainable type of composite
characterized by improved flame retardance. Polyamide 6 (PA6) was modified with the …

In this work, we consider low-cost carbon fiber produced with a textile-grade precursor. The
objective of the study is to investigate textile-grade carbon-fiber-reinforced-polypropylene …

In this study, organically modified montmorillonite (OMMT) was prepared by modifying MMT
with a cationic surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). The obtained OMMT of …

The production of wet laid (WL) reinforcing fiber mats is adopted from the paper making
industry to produce carbon fiber (CF) mats. The resulting mats are prone to defects induced …

The Apitong wood species has long been the most popular choice for transportation, such
as in trailer decking and shipping container floors. However, Apitong is depleting due to its …

Various wet‐laid nonwoven composites have been well‐developed in recent decades.
However, studies that systematically investigate the factors affecting the void content of wet …

The interest in recycled carbon fiber (rCF) is growing rapidly and the supply chain for these
materials is gradually being established. However, the processing routes, material …
