Ahlstrom-Munksjö glass and carbon fiber composite team was able to develop a carbon fiber based unidirectional fabric. In a unidirectional (UD) fabric the majority of fibers run in one direction ...

Aiming to increase the cost-weight viability of carbon fiber-reinforced composite structural components in railway vehicles, a prototype rail bogie prominently features recycled carbon fiber.

Carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites — also called carbon-fiber laminates — are the next-generation materials for making cars lighter, more fuel efficient and safer.

Carbon fibers, due to their superior strength and lightness, are popular in aerospace engineering applications. While much effort goes into improving the strength of carbon fiber composites, such ...

All bar one of the winning boats were built using an innovative, new laminate design for top end competition kayaks, with Crestapol 1250LV specified as the high performance infusion resin along with a ...

The Midland site will have development space for direct long-fiber processing, prepreg, performing, compression molding and laminating.

Of the market sectors featured in CW, the one in which the design flexibility of composites is most on display is architecture. A case in point is a new building concept developed by Digital ...
