Impact damage in woven fabric reinforced composites [PDF]
Very often, woven fabrics are used as the reinforcement in advanced composite materials. Although the resulting inplane stiffness is lower than of their unidirectional counterparts, the excellent drapability of these materials eases the production of ...

Antimicrobial nano-silver non-woven polyethylene terephthalate fabric via an atmospheric pressure plasma deposition process [PDF]
An antimicrobial nano-silver non-woven polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabric has been prepared in a three step process. The fabrics were first pretreated by depositing a layer of organosilicon thin film using an atmospheric pressure plasma system, then

Electron‐Induced Molecular Programming Drives Interfacial Chemistry for Ah‐Level Zinc Batteries
We establish an electron‐driven molecular programming strategy that converts spontaneous solid electrolyte interphase formation into a bonding‐defined interfacial architecture. Coordinative integration of p‐bromoaniline with ZnF2 forms a dipole‐regulated molecular lock that reconfigures interfacial electrostatics, suppresses parasitic water reactions ...

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement
ABSTRACT Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination

Woven fabric composites: Can we peel it?
AbstractThe present work focuses on the applicability of the mandrel peel test to quantify the fracture toughness of woven fabric Carbon/PEEK composites. For this purpose, the mandrel peel test was compared to the standardized DCB test. Unstable crack propagation (stick-slip) was observed in both testing techniques.
