Over the decades, ASTM shear test methods, from lamina-level to multidirectional laminate-level, have continued to evolve as composite applications require higher shear strengths.

This blog is a compilation of publicly available information on Safran Group’s (Paris, France) production of carbon fiber-reinforced carbon (carbon/carbon) brake discs for aircraft. The company ...

Carbon fibers consist of thin filaments (5–10 micrometers in diameter) made of long chains of carbon atoms arranged in a polycrystalline structure. These fibers contain 92–100 wt% anisotropic carbon ...

Lowering the cost and expanding the use of strong, lightweight carbon fiber will improve the energy efficiency of products including cars, trucks, and aircraft without sacrificing safety. The ORNL/RMX ...

Advanced carbon fiber materials could be used in applications from wind turbine blades to biomedical implants following the development of a low-cost carbon fiber feedstock. The carbon fibers were ...
