Influence of Thermal Cycling on Friction, Wear, and Damage Evolution of Fused Deposition Modeling of 3D‐Printed Glass Fiber Reinforced Polylactic Acid Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the experimental procedure of the specimens. ABSTRACT This research work investigated the effect of the cyclic thermo‐hygrometric aging regime between −20°C and +40°C with 0–400 cycles on the reciprocating tribological properties of fused deposition modeling (FDM) printed polylactic acid (PLA) and the same material reinforced ...

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Performance evaluation of thick carbon fiber‐reinforced laminates manufactured using six‐magnetron microwave system

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
IM7/Cycom 5320‐1 unidirectional prepreg has been used to fabricate 64‐layer laminated composites. A custom‐built six‐magnetron microwave applicator and an autoclave were employed to manufacture the composite panels. Mechanical performance of the microwave‐cured composites has been juxtaposed to autoclave‐cured composites in terms of uniaxial tensile ...

Microphysics and interactions of aerosols and fog on the northwest Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
In the Grand Banks, aerosol size distributions were bimodal, aerosol and fog droplet concentrations were low, and fogs were shorter (<12 hours). In contrast, near Sable Island, aerosol size distributions had a single broad mode that was likely influenced by continental emissions, corresponding with higher aerosol and droplet concentrations as well as ...

Unmanned Aerial Systems for Corrosion Detection: Multi‐Sensor Technologies, Challenges, and Opportunities for Next‐Generation Inspection

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Corrosion remains a critical threat to the integrity and service life of infrastructure in industries such as oil, gas, construction, renewable energy, and transportation. Traditional inspection methods, being labor‐intensive, hazardous, and often subjective, fall short in addressing modern inspection demands.
