The processing and characterisation of recycled glass fibre composites
The widespread use of glass fibre reinforced polymers (GFRP) over the last decades has led to an increasing amount of waste and a demand for recycling solutions. Mechanical, chemical and thermal GFRP recycling processes have been developed in academia but the commercialisation of GFRP recycling …

Polymer impregnation and its effect on the rupture properties of leather
… polymer - leather interaction would increase strength. Surface properties of leather fibres were altered (using a hydrophobic agent based on a phosphate ester) to more closely match those of the polymer. This resulted in a more even distribution of polymer on the leather fibrils. Application …

Determination of creep, fatigue and ageing characteristics of non-metallic strength members in optical communication cables
… brands of non-metallic continuous multi fibre strength member yarns, and one jointed non-metallic multi fibre strength member yam. The main materials under investigation were two commercial brands of the para aramid polymer yarn polyparaphenylene terepthalate, also investigated were …

Novel biodegradable fibres for applications in tissue engineering and drug delivery
… characterisation of novel biodegradable polymer fibres for application in tissue engineering and drug delivery are reported. Poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL) fibres were produced by wet spinning from solutions in acetone under low shear (gravity flow) conditions. The tensile strength and stiffness of …

Interdependence between geometric, tensile and chemical bond behaviours of untreated hair fibres
… understanding of the dynamics between the fibre's inherent geometric, mechanical and biological characteristics is deficient, affecting the reliability and robustness of hair data. There is also insufficient scientific clarity on the behaviour of curly hair, as most of the conclusions have …

Zur Beurteilung von AR-Glasfasern in alkalischer Umgebung
AR-Glas wird in Form von Multifilamentgarn zur Verstärkung in textilbewehrtem Beton eingesetzt. Während des Herstellungsprozesses wird auf die AR-Glasfilamente die Schlichte aufgebracht, deren chemische Zusammensetzung maßgeblich die Qualität der Filament-Matrix-Grenzschicht bestimmt, sowie die …
