    Fiber reinforced plastic, or FRP, encompasses an array of engineered materials that are specifically designed to put strength where it's needed while reducing the weight of a structure. Notable advantages of composites for offshore applications are flexibility, toughness, high, strength-to-weight ratio and cor

Manufacture of a shoe sole demonstrated the reclamation of continuous fibers with more than 80% of their original flexural strength. Both companies are now seeking additional recycling partners.

Prepare for JEC World 2024 in March with this succinct and useful list of some of the exhibitors that will be present on the show floor.

As longer composite wind blades are developed, customized mesh products help OEMs and kitting companies control resin flow and remove air voids during infusion.

EasyStreet Systems is working with Exel Composites to develop and certify pull-wound fiberglass utility poles aimed at durable, lightweight poles for 5G small cell systems.

This class, running April 11 and Nov. 3, is devoted to hands-on repair practices and classroom learning to understand composite materials and processes relative to the original structure and the repair.

    Typical FRP pipe is reciprocally filament wound with a fiber angle of ±54.75° relative to the longitudinal (0°) axis. This architecture satisfies stress loads in both the circumferential (hoop) and longitudinal (axial) directions for most pipes and pressure vessels. It withstands the in-use pressure, ther

Machinery expands production capacity and is being used for new application developments, including more complex composite parts.
