this research investigates the effect of the post-cure time on the residual stresses in laminated composites. laminated composites were made of t300 carbon fibers and epoxy resin. the post-cure process was carried out at the constant temperature of 120 °c for 6 and 12 hours for two specimens. the slitting method was employed to determine through-thickness residual stress distribution of the com...

Hydroxyapatite is a biocompatible ceramic and reinforcement for bone implantations. SEVA/HAP composite content HAP filler with difference particle sizes were designed. Mechanical tests like tensile modulus, UTS, strain at break and biodegradation were investigated. Results illustrated much increase tensile modulus of composites content HAP nano powders ratio to micro powders. Also UTS analysis ...

the effect of impact modifier on creep behavior of wood flour- recycled polypropylene composites has been evaluated in this work. for this purpose, impact modifier (ethylene vinyl acetate) and recycled polypropylene were mixed with wood flour (50/50% w/w) as well as the impact modifier (0, 3%, 6% and 9%) by a counter-rotating twin-screw extruder to manufacture the wood flour- recycled polypropy...

The synergism between polyoxometalates (POM) and Cu(II) ion in homogeneous aerobic thiol oxidative deodorization has been realized a more utilitarian heterogeneous catalyst: multi-electron-capable POM captured the pores...

the aim of this work is to evaluate the influence of fabrication methods on the com-pressive properties of sandwich composites using both experimental work and numerical simulations. two types of sandwich composites with e-glass/kevlar/polyester resin facings and end-grain balsa wood as core have been produced by vacuum infusion processing (vip) and hand-lay up (hl) method. compression tests on...

in this study, the strain rate effect on the bending properties of fiber reinforced composites for three types of polymer composites namely phenolic resin reinforced by woven basalt fibers, woven carbon fibers, and woven basalt/ woven carbon fibers at a total volume fraction of approximately 35% has been determined. flexural tests have been conducted at low range of strain rates included 0.03 m...

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of applying methods andamount of ammonium polyphosphate (0, 2 and 4 wt%) on fire retardancy andmechanical properties of wood flour/polypropylene composites. The resultsshowed that addition of fire retardant improved the mechanical properties such astensile and flexural strengths and fire retardancy of composites. But by increasingof fire retar...
