Influence of Hybrid Co‐wrapped Yarn Structure on the Energy Absorption and Crack Propagation Resistance of Fiber‐Reinforced Composites

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Helical wrapping of polyamide around E‐glass fibres deflects and bridges impact‐driven cracks, arresting damage that would otherwise propagate catastrophically in conventional side‐by‐side hybrid yarns. ABSTRACT Hybrid cowrapped (CW) yarns were engineered to enhance the impact resistance and damage tolerance of fiber‐reinforced composites.

Sustainable Development and Value Co‐Creation in International Business‐to‐Business Contexts: An Empirical Analysis in the Nonwoven Industry

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Regulations and the collective influence of the value chain compel business‐to‐business (B2B) actors within the nonwoven (NW) manufacturing industry to drive sustainable development. However, the literature rarely addresses how B2B actors aim to align with sustainable development to co‐create value and what challenges they face.
