Depending on the polymer used as the matrix, these composite materials come in two ... "Recycling used products instead of discarding them, as it happens today with thermoset polymer-based ...

Composites are made from two or more constituent materials, each with different properties. When combined, they create a material with properties greater than the sum of its parts. Examples include ...

there is an increasing need for a very high level of quality control and testing of products to ensure and monitor performance over time. Non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of polymer matrix composites ...

Because composite waste ... reused in new products. "The study demonstrates the first successful method to reclaim high value from both the carbon fiber and polymer matrix of CFRP materials ...

Concrete contractors are increasingly turning to GFRP (glass-fiber reinforced polymer) products as ... When working with GFRP composite products, there are some distinctions to be made.
