Fibre-reinforced polymers (FRPs) are a subset of polymer matrix composites and the focus of our Chemistry-enabled sustainable composites report. Both strong and lightweight, FRPs are used in a wide ...

Base Materials introduces a high-performance, toughened epoxy tooling board designed for thermoforming and vacuum forming processes, direct-to-part applications and more.

Examples include fiber reinforced plastics (FRPs), sheet molding compounds (SMCs), bulk molding compounds (BMCs), pre-preg materials, and fabricated composite parts. The GlobalSpec SpecSearch Database ...

Another example of an application that involves tailoring the optical properties of a material is the fabrication of infrared filters made from a polymer composite. These filters are transparent ...

They are made from a variety of metal, plastic, wood, ceramic, glass, and fiber-based composite materials. Southern pine panels are used in exterior siding applications. Birch and mahogany are used to ...

Resistance to color changes after accelerated weathering tests using UV light and heat to mimic exposure siding would encounter on an actual home. The Celect Cellular Composite by Royal 7 ...

Composite materials have their microstructure designed in terms of their macroscopic constituents, e.g. fibers in a homogeneous matrix material. By controlling the choice of fibers, their volume ...

You will need a UK 2.2 Honours degree or overseas equivalent in the following backgrounds; Materials Science, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Physical Chemistry, Polymer Engineering, Composite ...

Their intent was to sell me the LP Smart Siding and trim. 1 was from LP (manufacturer), 1 from LP PSPI (prefinisher), and the other from ABC Supply (local supplier). I was told of lofty CASH ...

It is often possible to separate the reinforcement from the matrix by physical processes. For example, reinforced concrete can be broken up using machinery. This is one stage in recycling the ...

Polymer Chemistry Communications contain novel scientific work of such importance that rapid publication is desirable. Authors should briefly indicate in a covering letter the reasons why they feel ...
