Integration of different synthetic materials, such as polymers, metals and ceramics, into functional devices often results in mismatches in mechanical and thermal properties that favour premature ...
The primary purpose of the work presented herein is to investigate the mechanical properties of a lithium rechargeable battery cathode 1-3 by utilizing both the classic XP CSM and newer, ultrafast DCM ...
President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Unlike metals and plastics, for which tensile and compressive properties are the same or very similar, unidirectional composites exhibit significantly different ...

A composite material is constructed from two or more components that are used as seperate phases, and combine in the final material to yield properties that exploit features of the components. In ...
This fibre has a linear density of 725 g/km (tex) with a filament diameter of 6.5 micrometres. The higher yield provides increased productivity during the carbon fibre composite conversion process ...
AZoM speaks with Dr. Nicola Ferralis from MIT about his research that has developed a low-cost process of creating carbon fibers from hydrocarbon pitch. This research could lead to the large-scale use ...
