Goodbye, Carbon Fiber Back in 2019, BMW began working with Bcomp, a clean-technology company that the German automaker owns stake in, to implement the flax-composite in its Formula E cars. After ...

Carbon fiber is a type of composite in which strands of pure carbon are embedded in a polymer matrix. The challenge is that the matrix polymer does not cling strongly enough to the carbon fiber, ...

In this paper, the carbon-fiber-wrapped rotor strength for High-speed permanent magnet synchronous machine (HSPMSM) was studied. Firstly, considering the carbon fiber wrapping process, the carbon ...

Carbon Fibers Core Hybrid composite architecture enables rigid wind propulsion solution for maritime decarbonization GT Wings’ AirWing leverages aerospace engineering principles combined with hybrid ...

ORNL researchers simulated 5 million atoms to study a novel process for making carbon-fiber composites stronger and more cost efficient by incorporating a reinforced layer of polyacrylonitrile ...

While the carbon fiber is relatively easy to recycle, the epoxy-amine resins—such as bisphenol A polymers cross-linked with amines—used to give these materials durability are trickier. A new ...

Carbon fiber, pivotal in aerospace and high-performance automotive design for its unrivaled strength and lightness, just got an upgrade thanks to some advanced simulation at the Department of ...

Porsche’s advanced and unprecedented carbon wheel is composed two components. The wheel’s carbon-fiber fabric center was assembled using more than 200 individual components.

Digital Camera World Verdict I like the solid support that the Vanguard VEO 2S CM-264TR monopod delivers, and its high-quality carbon fiber construction. The included smartphone kit with remote ...
