PRF Composite Materials introduces RP570 FR eXpress cure prepreg system


Composite Matedrials  (Poole, Dorset, U.K.) presents its RP570 FR eXpress cure prepreg system. Formulated for structural components requiring fire, smoke and toxicity (FST) properties, RP570 FR is a fire-retardant, ultra-fast
prepreg system which is cured and demoldable after five minutes at 160°C.

According to the company, the express resin system is primarily designed for snap cure press molding. However, it can equally be used in conventional
autoclave molding and reduce time in the autoclave — up to 50% less — thus increasing productivity and lowering energy consumption per part.

RP570 FR is tested to Federal Aviation Requirements 25.853 Appendix F Part 1, AITM 2.0007 and 3.0005, UL94 V1 and FMVS Standard No.302.

“RP570 FR is part of PRF’s drive to develop materials that offer measurable advantages in cost reduction and improved sustainability,” Dave Ellson, managing director, PRF Composite Materials, says.

  Simonelli undertakes research to reuse composite materials Simonelli Group is currently undertaking a research and development project to reuse composite materials, that nowadays have a vast range of uses and applications thanks to their durability and longevity, but which are also very difficult to dispose of. The De-Manufacturing research project, developed by Delta srl and Simonelli Group, is part of the Marche Region’s Marche Applied Research Laboratory for Innovative Composites (MARLIC) platform in the context of ‘Sustainable manufacturing: eco-sustainability of products and processes for new materials and de-manufacturing’. “We are truly delighted to take an active part in this virtuous synergy, promoted and developed also within the MARLIC platform as advocates of a dual objective, to make a strong contribution to the transition towards a circular economy and to grow and develop the local industrial system,” says Fabio Ceccarani, Simonelli Group Managing Director. “The De-Manu

Unsaturated polyester (UP)  resin  is a low cost thermoset with excellent processing ability and  mechanical properties  that finds applications in fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) materials. It also crosslinks readily in the presence of a catalyst such ketone peroxide, forming an even stronger and stiffer resin. Unfortunately, this also leads to lower  fracture toughness . Several methods to enhance the toughness of the cross-linked resin have been proposed; one such method involved blending with nano-fillers m

Revolutionizing Industries: Innovative Applications of Polymer Nanocomposites

Image
  In the dynamic realm of materials science, polymer nanocomposites have emerged as a revolutionary class of materials with unparalleled versatility and performance. From automotive engineering to biomedical technology, polymer nanocomposites are revolutionizing industries. This article explores the potential of polymer nanocomposites, highlighting their contributions to advancing materials science and supporting a sustainable future.1 What are Polymer Nanoparticles? Polymer nanoparticles, often termed nanofillers or nanoscale additives, are integral to polymer nanocomposites, imbuing them with exceptional properties. Ranging from 1 to 100 nanometers in diameter, these nanoparticles integrate into the polymer matrix, influencing mechanical strength, thermal conductivity, and electrical resistivity. Carbon-based nanoparticles like carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene reinforce polymer matrices effectively, while clay nanoparticles enhance mechanical reinforcement and flame retardancy. M
