Fiber Technology for Fiber-Reinforced Composites provides a
detailed introduction to fiber reinforced composites, explaining
the mechanics of fiber reinforced composites, along with
information on the various fiber types, including manufacturing of
fibers (starting from monomers and precursors), fiber spinning
techniques, testing of fibers, and surface modification of fibers.
As material technologies develop, composite materials are becoming
more and more important in transportation, construction,
electronics, sporting goods, the defense industry, and other areas
of research. Many engineers working in industry and academics at
universities are trying to manufacture composite materials using a
limited number of fiber types with almost no information on fiber
technology, fiber morphology, fiber properties, and fiber sizing
agents. This book fills that gap in knowledge.
Nanoparticle-Based Polymer Composites discusses recent advancements
on the synthesis, processing, characterization and applications of
this new class of hybrid materials. Chapters cover recycling and
lifecycle assessment, with contributions from leading researchers
in industry, academics, the government and private research
institutes from across the globe. As nanoparticle-based polymer
composites are now replacing traditional polymer composites in a
broad range of applications such as fuel cells, electronic and
biomedical devices, this book presents the latest advancements in
the field. Studies have shown that incorporating metal
nanoparticles in polymer matrices can improve their mechanical,
thermal, electrical and barrier properties. The unique combination
of these properties makes this new class of materials suitable for
a broad range of different and advanced applications.
