This paper investigates the use of novel phosphate-glass fibre-reinforced rods as resorbable intramedullary nails. Random and unidirectional fibres were moulded into composite rods by forging at *100°C. Rods produced using non-woven random mats (RM) showed little improvement in mechanical strength over the unreinforced polylactic acid (PLA) rods. This was suggested to be due to the breakdown of the fibres during the manufacturing process; the length of the fibres decreased from 10-mm (initial) to *1.2 mm. Modulus and stiffness values for P50 RM rods were higher than those for the PLA rods which could be due to the orientation of the fibres during the rod manufacture process. Rods produced using long fibres parallel to the length of the rod displayed superior mechanical properties, not only against the PLA rods but also cortical bone. Maximum flexural, shear and compressive strengths were 242, 87 and 400 MPa, respectively. A flexural modulus of 25 GPa was achieved, with shear and compressive stiffness values of 6 and 21.5 kN mm -1 , respectively. These unidirectionally reinforced phosphate glass fibre PLA composites have huge potential to be used as IM fixation devices.

“…12 Among the various inorganic materials available, zeolites have been used extensively as a matrix during the last two decades. 13 The resulting conducting polymer composites are used in many applications, such as electromagnetic interference shielding, 14,15 gas sensors [16][17][18][19][20] and metallic corrosion protection. [21][22][23][24] This study presents the preparation of a conducting composite based on the dispersion of either PANI in a zeolite matrix or zeolite in a PANI matrix.…”

:In this work, conducting poly(aniline)/zeolite (PANI-HY) composites used for a carbon dioxide (CO2) gas sensor, were prepared in two ways, The first method utilized in situ polymerization of aniline with ammonium perdisulfate as an oxidizer in an aqueous medium with addition of zeolite type HY-free acids. The second method involved the dispersion of various fractions of HY (5, 10, 15, 20 and 50 wt %) in a PANI-HCl matrix by physical mixing. We focused mainly on studying the conductivity with respect to temperature and gas environment. The synthesized conducting composites were characterized by FTIR, SEM, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, porosity and X-ray Diffraction. The PANI-HY composites showed the ability to detect CO2 at room temperature.

“…With recent developments, carbon fibre composites can now be recycled through various methods such as fluidised bed [1,2], pyrolysis [3] and the use of supercritical fluids [4,5]. Many current routes to reuse the recycled carbon fibres mainly focus on its mechanical properties while recycled carbon fibres are also found to be a suitable candidate as an electromagnetic interference shielding material [6]. In order to ensure a close recycling loop, ways to reuse the recycled fibres need to be explored.…”

a b s t r a c tAn N-type thermoelectric recycled carbon fibre sheet with bismuth telluride coating has been successfully synthesised through an electro-deposition technique. The Seebeck coefficient and electrical properties of the combined recycled carbon fibre sheet and bismuth telluride films are reported. Classification of the crystal structure, surface morphology and the elemental composition of the resulting deposits are methodically characterised by XRD, SEM and EDX. Cyclic voltammetry is also carried out in nitric acid solutions to investigate the right range of deposition potential. The synthesis N-type thermoelectric sheet has a highest attainable Seebeck coefficient of À 54 mV K À 1 and an electrical resistivity of 8.9 Â 10 À 5 O m. The results show slight differences in morphologies and thermoelectric properties for the films deposited at varying deposition potential. The increase in thermoelectrical properties of the recycled carbon fibre is in line with the development of using coated recycled fibre for thermoelectrical applications.
