Low Cost Carbon Fiber Technology Development for Carbon Fiber Composite Applications

Maximum 200 words) The main goals of this research program at UTSI were: 1) to produce low cost carbon fibers and 2) to develop specific carbonbased material technologies to meet current and future high performance fiber-reinforced composite needs of FTA and other organizations. UTSI has been carrying out the relevant research programs since it received the carbon fiber spinning technologies an...

Adsorption of Lead and Copper by a Carbon Black and Sodium Bentonite Composite Material: Study on Adsorption Isotherms and Kinetics

The efficiency of using a composite of carbon black and sodium bentonite in treating drinking water contaminated with lead and copper ions was analysed. The effects of pH, contact time, concentration and adsorbent dosage using an adsorbent composite of 20 % sodium bentonite and 80 % carbon black were studied. The adsorption data was tested with respect to Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin iso...

Flexural monitoring of carbon fiber/epoxy composite by acoustic emission

Carbon / epoxy composite is one of the most useful polymer matrix composites that has special properties such as high strength-to-weight ratio, high hardness, high corrosion resistance, Resistance to nuclear radiation has high consumption in different industries such as aerospace industry. Therefor monitoring of loading of this type of composite is important. In order to determine failure mecha...

Nano-engineered Carbon Nanofiber-copper Composite Thermal Interface Material for Efficient Heat Conduction

Efforts in integrated circuit (IC) packaging technologies have recently been focused on management of increasing heat density associated with high frequency and high density circuit designs. While current flip-chip package designs can accommodate relatively high amounts of heat density, new materials need to be developed to manage thermal effects of next-generation integrated circuits. Carbon n...
