This study investigates the residual mechanical properties of bio-inspired carbon-based composites designed with a multilayer toughened shell-pearl architecture. Mimicking the structural principles of natural armor systems, such as nacre, the composite integrates hard and soft layers to improve impact resistance, crack deflection, and energy dissipation. Even after damage, these composites exhibit excellent strength retention and durability under extreme mechanical loads. The innovative design provides a promising pathway for developing lightweight, tough, and resilient materials for aerospace, defense, and protective equipment applications, pushing the boundaries of bio-mimetic engineering and composite performance.

PRF Composite Materials introduces RP570 FR eXpress cure prepreg system

  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 Comp...

Taking an Energy Efficient, Green Chemistry Approach to Nanocomposite Synthesis

  Taking an Energy Efficient, Green Chemistry Approach to Nanocomposite Synthesis An Introduction to Graphene Graphene is an atomically thin, two-dimensional honeycomb film of sp 2  hybridized atoms of carbon. It has been found to have great mechanical strength, excellent electrical conduction, molecular barrier properties, and other beneficial qualities. The difficulty in fabrication, low solubility, and aggregation tendencies of graphene have made its utilization difficult. Graphene oxide (GO) is a graphene derivative with different oxygenated functional groups. GO offers several benefits over pure graphene, including facile fabrication, greater solubility and the capability of surface functionalization. These qualities have uncovered endless possibilities for utilizing GO in nanocomposite materials. Benefits of Using Metallic Nanoparticles Metallic nanoparticles (NPs) have various benefits in the field of electrochemist...

The method is reported in  Carbon  and involves making briquettes—dense packages of carbon nanotube powders. Nanocomposites made with briquettes perform equally well as those made from the more expensive masterbatches, which are also polymer-specific—that is, less versatile. We believe the use of dense briquettes of carbon nanotubes can significantly faci...
