ELG Carbon Fibre has processed more than 1.2 metric tonnes of INEOS Team UK’s carbon fiber waste materials to produce two cradles for the new race boat.

Scotsman is a direct-to-consumer, tailor-made electric kickscooter with continuous carbon fiber/thermoplastic unibody frame, handlebars, stem and baseboard.

The process uses algae to convert CO₂ from the atmosphere and manufacturing exhaust into algae oil, which is then used to produce polyacrylonitrile (PAN) carbon fiber precursor. 

Aromatic thermosetting copolyester offers unique properties, availability in multiple form factors.

Dr. Daniel O. Adams, professor of mechanical engineering and director of the Composite Mechanics Laboratory at the University of Utah and VP of Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. (Salt Lake City, UT, US) compares and contrasts the direct and indirect loading methods for interlaminar tensile testing of composites.

Among the winners and finalists, a wide range of technologies demonstrate composites’ benefits for ground transportation.

With increasingly complex structural components working their way into aerospace programs, the need for versatility in inspection and testing capabilities is growing. 

More widespread use of welded composite structures within a decade? Yes, but further developments are needed.

Long-time CW staff depart, new faces emerge.
