Bio-inspired copper composite achieves zero thermal expansion and high heat transfer
Zero-thermal-expansion (ZTE) materials are widely used in precision optics, cryogenic equipment and sensors, where even small ...
Polymer matrix composites (PMCs) are made by reinforcing a polymer-based matrix with glass, carbon, or aramid fibers. PMCs are classified into thermosetting and thermoplastic resins based on the type ...
U of T researchers develop ultra-strong, lightweight metal composite that can withstand extreme heat
University of Toronto researchers have designed a new composite material that is both very light and extremely strong – even at temperatures up to 500 Celsius. The material, which is described in a ...
Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) have emerged as a critical class of materials for demanding high-temperature applications due to their unique combination of properties, including: However, ...
Arceon (Delft, Netherlands) produces a family of ceramic matrix composites (CMC) called Carbeon which comprise uncoated carbon fiber reinforcement in a carbon-silicon carbide matrix (C/C-SiC) made ...
