The usability of recycled carbon fibres in short fibre thermoplastics: interfacial properties [PDF]
The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of combining discontinuous recycled carbon fibres with polypropylene, to produce a low-cost, high specific stiffness material for high-volume applications. The inherent low affinity of carbon

A miniaturized mechano‐acoustic sensor is developed using an electrospun PVDF nanomesh as the diaphragm in a capacitive sensor structure. Unlike conventional nanomesh‐based sensors, it achieves high linear sensitivity, a broad and flat frequency response, and a compact form factor.

Interfaces and interfacial effects in glass reinforced thermoplastics - Keynote Presentation [PDF]
Optimization of the fibre-matrix interphase region is critical to achieving the required performance level in thermoplastic matrix composites. Due to its initial location on the fibre surface, the sizing layer is an important component in the formation ...

A technique for the measurement of reinforcement fibre tensile strength at sub-millimetre gauge lengths [PDF]
The strength of composite reinforcement fibres is normally measured on samples of much greater length than the actual residual fibre lengths found in many composite materials.

Energy-Efficient Low-Complexity Algorithm in 5G Massive MIMO Systems [PDF]
Energy efficiency (EE) is a critical design when taking into account circuit power consumption (CPC) in fifth-generation cellular networks. These problems arise because of the increasing number of antennas in massive multiple-input multiple-output ...

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

Abaca fibre reinforced PP composites and comparison with jute and flax fibre PP composites
Abaca fibre reinforced PP composites were fabricated with different fibre loadings (20, 30, 40, 50wt% and in some cases 35 and 45 wt%). Flax and jute fibre reinforced PP composites were also fabricated with 30 wt% fibre loading. The mechanical properties,

The influence of thermal stress on the interface strength of a fibre-reinforced thermoplastic investigated by a novel single fibre technique [PDF]
The present work focuses on further verification of the hypothesis that the level of apparent IFSS in glass fibre-reinforced thermoplastic composites can be modelled satisfactorily by assuming that the main component of the IFSS is actually due to a ...

Novel hybrid flax reinforced supersap composites in automotive applications [PDF]
Flax fibre bio-epoxy composites have not found many commercial uses in structural applications on account of their lack of cost efficiency and high susceptibility to environmental changes. Non-woven flax mats were subjected to alkali, acetylation, silane
