Second‐Life Thermoset Manufacturing via Mild Solvolysis of Epoxy‐Matrix Composites and Wet‐Laid Mat Production

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
From end‐of‐life pultruded CFRP profiles (1) to second life composites (7) through mild solvolysis (2,3), wet‐laid nonwoven mat fabrication (4), resin impregnation (5), and compression molding (6). ABSTRACT The growing use of carbon fiber–reinforced thermosets has led to the accumulation of significant composite waste, posing environmental and economic

Behavior of Injection‐Molded Nylon 6 Composites With Virgin and Field‐Exposed Waste‐Recycled Blends

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Recycling field‐exposed Nylon 6 composites for sustainable secondary applications. ABSTRACT Every year, more than 18,600 metric tonnes of glass fiber‐reinforced Nylon 6 composite waste from sucker rod guides used in downhole oil and gas applications are landfilled due to uncertainty about retained performance after prolonged service exposure.

An extinction‐emergency metacollection: Maximising future recovery options for Rhodomyrtus psidioides (Myrtaceae), threatened by Myrtle Rust

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
A challenge for wild plant conservation is the rising incidence of plant pathogens that are difficult to interdict, contain and manage. Invasive, fast‐moving, broad‐spectrum pathogens impose societal costs through losses of intrinsically valuable wild biodiversity, ecosystem function, current and potential genetic and biological assets, culturally ...

Design of a Novel Gripping Mechanism and Dual Manipulator Robotic System for Apple Harvesting Using Tractor

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The architecture of apple orchards can be converted to easier operation by implementing the use of a low‐cost, tractor‐mounted, dual manipulator based on a robotic harvesting system with lower degrees of freedom (DoF). To accurately avoid injuries by detecting apples, an efferent, real‐time vision system that includes a new gripping mechanism ...
