Advancing Polyolefin Composites for New Applications

Polyolefin composites or POC’s are generally defined as materials that contain two or more phases and have a distinct boundary between the two phases. The careful combination of different and unique systems can result in improved structures and functions over the individual components alone. The properties of POC’s can be enhanced through the appropriate engineering techniques. Some…

How to Solve Fiber-reinforced Plastics Recycling Issues?

Fiber-reinforced plastics or FRPs are lightweight, have high specific mechanical properties, are corrosion resistant, have long life cycles, and are easy to manufacture in different shapes. This combination of properties has made FRP very attractive materials for use in the automotive industry and other transportation fields. Recycling of thermoset FRPs present an especially difficult challenge due to the fact…
