Nanotechnology in engineering is intended for achieving newer materials with immensely improved electrical, thermal and mechanical properties. The effectiveness of different fillers (micro nanoscale) on the flame retardant behaviour glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites were studied using cone calorimetry. In present investigation, fabrication ECR reinforcement pultrusion method was taken up....

This review deals with recent works on the process and technological aspects of wood-plastic composites (WPCs) manufacturing.WPCs relate to any that are built from wood non-wood fibers thermoplastic polymers. Recent progress relevant has been reviewed in this article. The WPC, such as raw materials, fabrication, mechanical, physical, thermal, morphological properties, were outlined comprehensiv...

At present, design and construction of all-FRP structures with the use GFRP are developing. All-FRP frame bolted connections to form nodes between elements, particularly steel bolts. This research focuses on FRP pultruded plates instead chords webs. Frame formed by adjoining elements at different angles through gusset plates. In accordance literature analysis, a small number tests have been car...

In this paper, an epoxy resin-based carbon fiber reinforced composite (CFRP) bar pultrusion system using a closed impregnation device which has various advantages in process compared to traditional open bath type was developed, and the improved through analysis of resin properties for high-speed production CFRP bars used support mother glass display transfer cassettes. To improve feeder system,...

The axial compressive strength of unidirectional FRP made by pultrusion is generally quite lower than its axial tensile strength. This fact decreases the advantages of FRP as main load bearing member in engineering structure. A theoretical iterative calculation approach was suggested to predict the ultimate axial compressive stress of the combined structure and analyze the influences of geometr...

Pultrusion is a high-volume manufacturing process for fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites ensuring high strength and quality products. However, research studies are very limited on the fatigue behavior of these products, especially with unidirectional fiber alignment. This study investigates pultruded glass FRP (GFRP) volume fraction ( V f = 65 % $$ {V}_f=65\% ). Tension–tension loading w...
