Development of In-house Unidirectional Carbon/epoxy Prepregs and its Characterization for Aerospace Applications

Assessment of Dimensional Stability, Biodegradability, and Fracture Energy of Bio-Composites Reinforced with Novel Pine Cone

“…Pine cones were collected from lower Himalayas of Northern India. The density of extracted fibres was calculated by ASTM D792-91 and reported as 0.168 gm/cm 3 [ 25 ]. The extraction of pine cone fibre from collected pine flower was depicted in Figure 1 .…”

Chemically activated core–shell structured IF-WS2@C nanoparticles enhance sugarcane-based carbon/epoxy nanocomposites

“…The cured ER has the characteristics of strong adhesion, low shrinkage, excellent chemical and electrical properties, and strong chemical stability, which allow it to be widely used in the machinery, motor, chemical industry, aerospace, automotive, construction, and other industrial sectors. 3,[24][25][26][27] Researchers found that incorporating a second phase component into ER might overcome the drawbacks of its inherent brittleness that restricts its wide applications. SCP, a renewable biomass material that features non-toxicity, eco-friendliness, and ultra-lightness, has good compatibility with most matrices as a ller in composites.…”

Characterisation of Composites Made by Prepreg Waste

“…Composites made from epoxy/carbon prepregs have broad applications in the field of the aerospace industry due to their high performance [1]. Industries utilising prepregs usually landfill the leftover prepreg.…”

“…Anil et al [5], have studied the compression properties of PBDC. The primary objective of this study is (1) To develop a composite manufacturing technology using different sizes of the chips (6 × 6, 6 × 12 and 6 × 18 mm) chopped from prepreg waste collected from industry. (2) To find the effect of chip length of the above-prepared laminates under tensile load.…”
