The automotive applications of PMC include both thermoplastic matrix composites and thermoset matrix composites. Thermoplastic matrix composites are used for a variety of interior and body applications, such as instrument panels, seat backs, inner door panels, fender aprons and bumper beams. The thermopl...
Due to the unique high specific strength and stiffness of carbon fiber reinforced polymer composite matrix (CFRP) composites have been recognized as a very desirable material. For over 50 years, the use of these composites has been widespread in a range of sectors including aeronauti...
Soviet industry had made great achievements in the manufacturing of composite materials for aerospace and rocket applications. For example, the fraction of composites (predominantly carbon fibre reinforced plastics) in the large passenger aircrafts Tu-204 and 11-86 is 12-15% of the structure weight....
Polymer matrix composites (PMCs), composed of synthetic or natural polymeric resins reinforced with high performance fibers and particles, have found broad applications in aerospace and aeronautical structures, ground vehicles, offshore and civil infrastructures, sports utilities, amongst others. due to th...
