The development of the FRP industry in Taiwan (Republic of China) is very similar to that of industrialized countries. It started with the processing of FRP products in 1966, followed by the ...

The Norwegian Circular Materials Technology cluster (NCMT) is a Norwegian business cluster created in 2021 that represents both the plastics and composites industries. It has set up a database listing ...

One of the recurring themes in this column over the past few years has been the development of new test methods for sandwich composites. This is primarily a result of the opportunities I’ve had to ...

A carbon fiber is prepared for mounting in a device to test its adhesion to a polymer matrix. ORNL researchers are using polymer nanofibers to increase the adhesion, and thus the performance, of ...

Researchers developed advanced aerogel composites that combine high-temperature insulation with mechanical load-bearing capabilities, while also achieving controllable fabrication of large-size ...
