This study was carried out using bleached softwood Chemi-Thermo-Mechanical Pulp to evaluate the influence of Molded Pulp Products’ manufacturing process parameters on the finished products’ mechanical and hygroscopic properties. A Taguchi table was done to make 8 tests with specific process parameters such as moulds temperature, pulping time, drying time, and pressing time. The results of these te...... hiện toàn bộ
Study on mixing behaviour of aluminium-ceramic powder having high SiC volume fractions up to 50 vol.%Functional Composite Materials - Tập 4 - Trang 1-9 - 2023
Marco Speth, Kim Rouven Riedmueller, Mathias Liewald
Aluminium matrix composites (AMC) do combine a high lightweight potential with a wide range of specific mechanical or thermal properties, depending on their material composition or the content of reinforcement particles, respectively. Currently, the three main production technologies for manufacturing such AMC are powder metallurgy, semi-solid processes and casting. Here, the AMC´s reinforcement p...... hiện toàn bộ

Permanent Rare Earth magnets are becoming more and more important in efficient motors and generators with high energy density. Among them NdFeB magnets are the most employed, with NdFeB having higher remanence, high coercivity and energy product. Nevertheless,their poor corrosion resistance makes them susceptible to degradation of the magnetic properties. One possible solution is the development o...... hiện toàn bộ

Carbon-fibre reinforced composites are seeing increased deployment, especially in the aerospace industry, and the next-generation of these materials will need to meet demanding performance requirements beyond just specific strength. The incorporation of nanomaterials such as graphene into composites has great potential for enhancing electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties, which could then ...... hiện toàn bộ
Multi-material braids for multifunctional laminates: conductive through-thickness reinforcementFunctional Composite Materials - Tập 2 Số 1 - 2021
Caroline O’Keeffe, Laura Rhian Pickard, Juan Cao, Giuliano Allegri, Ivana K. Partridge, Dmitry Ivanov
AbstractConventional carbon fibre laminates are known to be moderately electrically conductive in-plane, but have a poor through-thickness conductivity. This poses a problem for functionality aspects that are of increasing importance to industry, such as sensing, current collection, inductive/resistive heating, electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, etc. Thi...... hiện toàn bộ
Mechanical behavior of stretchable conductive materials based on elastomeric core: experimental and theoretical simulationFunctional Composite Materials - - 2022
Avia J. Bar, Joey Mead, Hanna Dodiuk, Samuel Kenig
The mechanical behavior of braided carbon nanotube yarns (CNTYs) on an elastomeric core to produce stretchable conductive materials were theoretically modeled and experimentally studied under tension. The elastomeric core served as the stretchable spring and the CNTYs braiding, with shape changing capabilities, as the conductive shell. A variety of samples were produced having various braiding ang...... hiện toàn bộ
