Oligomer polymer engineering transforms 100% recyclable thermoplastic composite paradigms MET-OL thermoplastic technology alters high molecular weight polybutylene terephthalate into low-viscosity ...

The challenge is that the matrix polymer does not cling strongly enough to the carbon fiber, reducing the performance of the composite material.

A polymer matrix is a plastic-like, rigid material (such as epoxy, polyester or vinyl resins) that acts as a binder; a polymer holds carbon fibers together and gives composite materials their shape.

Composite materials are engineered by fusing different materials, typically consisting of a matrix (a polymer, metal, or ceramic) and a reinforcement (such as fibers, particles, or flakes) that ...

As polymer matrix composites are being extensively used in structural applications, there is an increasing need for a very high level of quality control and testing of products to ensure and monitor ...
