Post‐Consumer Mechanical Recycling of Thermally Degraded Glass‐Fiber Reinforced Polyamide 6,6 for Electrical Applications

open access: yesMacromolecular Materials and Engineering, Volume 311, Issue 4, April 2026.
Post‐consumer mechanical recycling of PA66–GF composite with brominated flame‐retardant is assessed using accelerated thermal ageing to reproduce long‐term thermo‐oxidative degradation typical of electrical devices. Property retention is quantified across virgin, aged, recycled, and diluted recycled states through mechanical testing, microscopy, DSC ...

Water‐Borne Erosion of Reinforced Polymer Composites: Application to Shallow Offshore Marine Environment

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 5, Page 4102-4126, 10 March 2026.
Comparison of experimental and model‐predicted erosion rates for carbon fibre‐reinforced polymer (CFRP) and glass fibre‐reinforced polymer (GFRP) under low‐velocity (2 m/s) and at varying angles and sand concentrations (0.0, 0.05, 0.4 g/L). The results demonstrate good agreement between experimental data and model predictions across different erosive ...

Manufacturing of PP‐Based Composite Sandwich Panels via Simultaneous Foaming and Skin‐Core Bonding

open access: yesPolymer Composites, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 2349-2362, 10 February 2026.
One‐step CO2 physical foaming process for manufacturing thermoplastic sandwich panels: in‐situ expansion of a foaming‐grade PP core and fusion bonding with PP/glass fiber composite skins. ABSTRACT Sandwich panels are skin‐core‐skin structures commonly used in aerospace applications due to their high strength‐to‐weight ratio and flexural stiffness.

Variational Method and CZM‐Based FEM Mechanical Strength Assessment of Adhesively Bonded Hybrid Sisal‐Glass Reinforced HDPE Composite for Automobile Side Body Panel Application

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 2, February 2026.
Adhesively bonded steel‐to‐hybrid sisal–glass/HDPE joints were experimentally and numerically assessed using a variational method and CZM‐based FEM. Optimal overlap (10 mm) and adhesive thickness (0.5 mm) achieved peak shear stress of 32 MPa, confirming lightweight, sustainable automotive panel potential. ABSTRACT This study investigates the mechanical

Fibre composites for high pressure pipeline repairs, in-air and subsea: an overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In 2001 it was reported that in North America alone, corrosion to the Oil & Gas pipeline distribution network cost approximately $2-3.3 billion per annum with 10% of that cost being associated with actual failure of the pipeline.
