Durability and Damage Analysis of Hybrid Multiscale Composites
… the mechanical performance of fiber reinforced composites (FRPs) by modification of the fibers’ surface morphologies. The effects of various surface alterations of a plain-woven carbon fiber fabric surface, on the fiber/epoxy interface were investigated. The alterations were mostly achieved by …

Understanding the effect of nanofillers on the properties of polypropylene and glass fiber/polypropylene multiscale composites
In this study, polypropylene (PP) based nanocomposites were prepared by incorporating different kinds and amounts of silica nanoparticles and graphite nanoplatelets (GNP). The role of various percentages of compatibilizer polypropylene grafted with maleic anhydride (PPgMA) into PP nanocomposites …

Factors Affecting Fiber Orientation and Properties in Semi-Flexible Fiber Composites Including the Addition of Carbon Nanotubes
… the orientation of injection molded long fiber composites in an end-gated plaque were investigated. Matrix viscosity was found to have a small effect on fiber orientation. The impact matrix viscosity had on orientation was dependent on fiber loading. At lower fiber loadings, the higher viscosity …

Next Generation Multifunctional Composites for Impact, Vibration and Electromagnetic Radiation Hazard Mitigation
… processes for developing hybrid, multifunctional composites based on surface grown carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on carbon fibers' yarns. This study embraces the development of a novel low temperature synthesis technique to grow CNTs on virtually any substrate. The developed method graphitic structures …

FABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF 3D PRINTED METALLIC OR NON-METALLIC GRAPHENE COMPOSITES
… base substances. Biological materials are often composites, which optime the conformation to their function. On the other hand, synthetic materials are designed a priori, structuring them according to the performance to be achieved. 3D printing manufacturing is the most direct method for specific …
